An effective method for establishing a regeneration and genetic transformation system for Actinidia arguta
...
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
The all-red A. arguta (Actinidia arguta) is an anthocyanin-rich and excellent hardy fruit. Many studies have focused on the green-fleshed A. arguta, and fewer studies have been conducted on the all-red A. arguta. Here we reported a regeneration and Agrobacterium-mediated transformation protocol by using leaves of all-red A. arguta as explants. Asep...
Encapsulated plant growth regulators and associative microorganisms: Nature-based solutions to mitigate the effects of c...
Over the past decades, the atmospheric CO2 concentration and global average temperature have been increasing, and this trend is projected to soon become more severe. This scenario of climate change intensifies abiotic stress factors (such as drought, flooding, salinity, and ultraviolet radiation) that threaten forest and associated ecosystems as we...
Growth regulators and biostimulants: upcoming opportunities

Interplay of silymarin and clove fruit extract effectively enhances cadmium stress tolerance in wheat (Triticum aestivum...
...
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
Introduction Osmoprotectant supplementation can be used as a useful approach to enhance plant stress tolerance. However, the effect of silymarin and clove fruit extract (CFE) on wheat plants grown under cadmium (Cd) stress has not been studied. Methods Wheat seeds were planted in plastic pots filled with ions-free sand. A ½-strength Hoagland’s nutr...
Exogenous γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) mitigated salinity-induced impairments in mungbean plants by regulating their nitro...
...
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
Background Increasing soil salinization has a detrimental effect on agricultural productivity.Therefore, strategies are needed to induce salinity-tolerance in crop species for sustainable foodproduction. γ-aminobutyric acid (GABA) plays a key role in regulating plant salinity stresstolerance. However, it remains largely unknown how mungbean plants ...
The role of indole derivative in the growth of plants: A review
Published in Frontiers in Plant Science
Indole compounds with their unique properties of mimicking peptide structures and reversible binding to enzymes are of great exploitative value in the regulation of plant growth. They stimulate root and fruit formation and activate the plant’s immune system against biotic and abiotic factors harmful to the plant. Analysis of target recognition, rec...
Effects of exogenous hormones on the regeneration of juveniles from Sargassum fusiforme holdfasts
Published in Frontiers in Marine Science
During the cultivation of Sargassum fusiforme, sexual reproduction of superior strains can hinder the stable inheritance of their desirable traits and reduce their economic benefits. However, vegetative reproduction of S. fusiforme holdfasts has high potential for subculture. In this study, we investigated the effects of different concentrations of...
In vitro regeneration protocol for Securidaca longepedunculata Fresen., a threatened medicinal plant within the region o...
Securidaca longepedunculata Fresen. is an overexploited forest species in the Lubumbashi region (south-eastern DR Congo), as its roots are highly valued in traditional medicine. Conventional propagation of this species is affected by seed dormancy and a high mortality rate during early seedling development. To improve on existing methods, we develo...
Secondary somatic embryogenesis in Cork oak: influence of plant growth regulators
...
Cork oak (Quercus suber L.) is one of the most important Mediterranean forest tree species, and the Maamora forest-Morocco is considered to be the world largest cork oak stand. Clonal propagation of Quercus suber via somatic embryogenesis is an alternative to conventional tree propagation methods. However, complete maturation of somatic embryos is ...
