Journal American Journal of Botany and Bioengineering

Issue 1

Volume 2

To obtain highly locally desired Iraqi jasmine (Jasminum sambac L.) seedlings in a large scale and free of pathogens to meet the local demand for this plant, this work was done in the Laboratory for Plant Cell and Tissue Culture/Department of Plant production techniques/Agricultural Technical College/Northern Technical University. Included In vitro planting of jasmine single nodes during the multiplication stage on MS (Murashige and Skoog) basal medium enriched by (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2.0 mg L-1) of BA and Kin. At the rooting stage, the plantlets that obtained were planted on full and half of MS salt's strength medium enriched with IBA at a concentration of (0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2 mg L-1). The results showed that the shoot numbers were not affected significantly by CK type. In contrast, the number of leaves was significantly affected, as nodes were planted in media containing Kin recording the largest leaves number (6.24 leaf/shoot) compared to those planted in media containing BA. While, the nodes planted on MS nutrient medium equipped with (1 mg L-1) BA gave the largest new shoots formed number and the greatest number of leaves (2.6 and 7.40 respectively) with significant superiority over all other treatments. As for the rooting stage a highest rooting percentage (80%) and the largest roots number (4.8) was recorded in MS with half salt's strength medium enriched by 0.5 mg L-1 IBA, the plantlets were successfully transferred to the greenhouse with a survival percentage of (85%). The results of the study can be adopted as a successful protocol for the propagation of the high aesthetic value Razaki plant used as an ornamental plant.

Research was conducted at the Rashidia Research Station with three main factors: first was three varieties of barley (Amal, Rehan and Samir), second was planting distances between lines (15, 30) cm, and third was seed rate (120, 160) kg. ha-1. Urea fertilizer was added at a rate of 240 kg. ha-1 In two batches, the research was carried out according to the global experiments system, in three sectors, and with a completely randomized block design. The data was analyzed using a computer and SAS program, with the Duncan multiple range test being employed for comparison means with different letters of the alphabet. The results were as follows: The variety Rehan outperformed the two varieties Samir and Amal are the most common species in terms of total weeds.m-2. Samir cultivar outperformed Rehan and Amal cultivars in terms of plant height, spike number m-2, and grain yield. Distance (30) cm is superior to distance (40) cm in the average characteristics of number of total weeds, and distance (15) cm is superior to distance (30) cm.. Study focuses on the average characteristics of plant height, number of spikes, and grain yield. Seed rate (120) kg.ha-1 was superior to the average (160) kg.ha-1. Average characteristic of total number of weeds is a crucial factor to consider, seed rate (160) kg.ha-1 was superior to average (120) kg.ha-1 in average. Average characteristic of total number of weeds is a crucial factor to consider. Interaction between barley variety Samir and the distance (30 cm) and rate (120) kg.ha-1 achieved highest yield, while lowest yield was when the interaction between variety Amal and distance (30 cm) and rate (120 kg.ha-1).

The study aimed to harden two grape cultivars, Superior and Red globe shoots grown in vitro by adding different PEG concentrations (0, 5, 10, 20, and 40 g L-1) to the growth medium (MS + 2 mg L-1 BA) for inducing in vitro drought stress. Biochemical compounds directly impacted by drought were assessed 30 days after planting to determine the modifications of their metabolic pathways to adapt to the drought and shoots survived. Compared to the control treatment, the addition of PEG resulted in a significant increase in the antioxidants produced in the explant (anthocyanin, proline, total sugars, and catalase enzyme) as well as a significant decrease in the explant content of malondialdehyde and chlorophyll. The results also demonstrated that the cultivars differed significantly in all the studied traits. Likewise, the interaction coefficients between the cultivars and the added PEG concentrations achieved significant differences from the control for each cultivar separately. The largest anthocyanin concentration for the Red globe and Superior cultivars (24.46 and 13.30 mg 100 g-1) proline (25.08 and 20.75 mmol g-1), respectively, obtained from shoots growing in media supplied with 20 g l-1 PEG While the most significant percentage of total sugars (11.17 and 10.58%), respectively, were obtained from shoots grown in media content 40 gm L-1 PEG, While the highest catalase enzyme concentration for the two cultivars Red globe and Superior (9.01 and 8.21 units mg-1) and was obtained from shoots grown in the presence of 40 and 20 g l-1 PEG, respectively. The study reveals that the Red Globe variety is more resilient to droughts than the Superior variety, making it ideal for water-scarce regions.

Organic nitrogen, which comes from amino acids, is absorbed and transported more rapidly than inorganic nitrogen by plant cells and tissues. Therefore, this study was conducted to evaluate the effect of some amino acids on the response of single nodes of grape Vitis vinifera L. Superior and Red globe cultivars were classified for in vitro multiplication to develop an efficient protocol for propagation of these two valuable species. The study included two experiments: first, the effect of adding three concentrations (0, 0.5, and 1) mg L-1 of Benzyl Adenine (BA) to the MS medium in the initiation stage. The second investigation utilized three amino acid types (glutamine, asparagine, and methionine) at five concentrations (0, 10, 20, 40, and 80) mg L-1 added to MS medium containing 2 mg L-1 of BA. Results indicated that the most significant newly initiated shoots (2.40 and 2.88) and the largest leaves number (7.90 and 5.88) for both cultivars, Superior and Red globe, respectively were obtained in a medium with 1 mg L-1 of BA. The multiplication results in eight weeks after cultivation showed that adding amino acid glutamine at 10 mg L-1 significantly increased the number of shoots/explant (6.60 and 6.00) and (29.50 and 38.30) leaves/explant for Red globe and Superior, respectively. The high amino acid concentrations (40 and 80) mg L-1 significantly reduced the studied growth parameters, especially the number of newly formed shoots. The results obtained from the present study exhibited the possibility of applying this modified protocol to the propagation of selected grape cultivars to encourage the expansion of the grape-growing industry in Iraq.

Abstract: The germination and growth of Gibberellillin-treated Vicia faba L. seeds sown at different cultivation depths were evaluated during the fall season 2022-2023 in the experimental lithe house belonging to the Plant Production Techniques Department / Agricultural Technical College / Mosul. The study comprised two variables: first, gibberellin (GA3) concentrations at three levels (0, 100, and 200 ppm), and second, cultivation depths at three levels (5, 10, and 15 cm). The inquiry was carried out using a completely randomized design (CRD) with three replications using a factorial experimental technique. The data were statistically evaluated using the SAS program and Duncan's multiple range tests for mean comparison. The results showed that gibberellin concentrations (100 and 200 ppm) were superior to the comparison treatment in terms of germination percentage, plant height, number of branches, and moist weight of seedlings after 45 days of planting. After 45 days of planting, cultivation depths of 10 and 15 cm outperformed 5 cm in terms of germination percentage, plant height, and moist weight of seedlings. In all attributes evaluated, the interaction between gibberellin concentration (200 ppm) and culture depth (10 cm) outperformed the others.

Volume 13)

The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of different types and concentration of plant growth regulators (Cytokinins: Kinetin and Benzyl adenine (BA) at 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 2 and 2.5 mg.l- 1) on shoot proliferation of Pyracantha coccinea and auxin (indole-3- butyric acid) (IBA at 0, 0.5 and 1 mg.l-1) and different carbon sources (Sucrose and Glucose) with ½ and full MS salt strength in root formation. The results obtained from this study indicate that the greatest number shoots and leaves per explant were acquired when BA was 2.5 mg/l-1, which gave 8 shoots and 54.33 leaves respectively. In the rooting stage, the greatest number of roots per explant was obtained when half MS salt strength was used with Sucrose and 1mg.l-l IBA, which gave 11.33 roots/explant. Up to 83% of shoots were rooted. plantlets of P. coccinea with roots were successfully acclimatized with a survival rate of 80% in sand, 95% in peatmoss and 85% in sand + peatmoss. This procedure can be adopted for P. coccinea in vitro propagation.

Journal Diyala Agricultural Sciences Journal

Issue 1

Volume 13

A reliable and successful micropropagation protocol was developed for pepino plant (Solanum muricatum Aiton) from nodal segment explants grown on MS medium. The best values of shoot multiplication traits were recorded from the addition of 3 mg.l-1 kinetin by producing 2.3 shoots/explant, 3.6 cm and 9.6 leaves/ explant which was significantly superior upon the addition of BA at the same levels. In case of adding 3 mg.l-1 kinetin, the best root formation attributes were achieved from the use of 0.2 mg.l-l IAA that resulted a maximum number of roots (14.33 roots/ explant). The longest root length (15.33 cm) was achieved when 0.3 mg.l-l IAA was used. A 100% rooting percentage was recorded from the all tested auxins including IAA, IBA and NAA. The gradually moved plantlets from the heterotrophic phase in the lab to the autotrophic phase in the greenhouse showed 100% success. The plantlets did not show any abnormal growth or morphological changes. It is concluded that this important plant can be easily propagated by tissue culture technique through a reliable micropropagation protocol.

The study aimed to investigate PGR's effect on in vitro grapes Vitis Vinifera L. cvs. Superior and Red globe single nodes propagation. During the surface sterilization stage (10, 20, and 30%), commercial bleach solution was used as a disinfectant agent for (5, 10, and 15 minutes) immersion periods. In the multiplication stage, explants were planted in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium enriched with (1, 2, 3, and 4 mg L-1) of Benzyl Adenine (BA) concentrations and the control treatment was (BA-free). The rooting stage included cultivating plantlets from the multiplication stage on half-salt strength MS media supplied with (0, 0.5, 1, and 1.5 mg L-1) indole-3- butyric acid (IBA). The results showed that the highest percentage of uncontaminated explants was achieved in 20% of commercial bleach solutions used for a 10-minute immersion period (90 and 80% for Superior and Red Globe cultivars, respectively). The results of the multiplication stage showed that the highest values of newly formed shoots number and leaves number (4.50 and 20.90, respectively, for the Superior) and (4.10 and 18.50, respectively, for the Red Globe) were recorded in media containing 2 mg L-1 BA. The Superior variety showed the highest rooting percentage (90%) and significant root number (3.55) in a medium containing 1 mg L-1 IBA, while the Red Globe variety had the highest percentage (100%), and the root number (3.50) in the medium contained 0.5 mg L-1. The results of this study provide a rapid and effective propagative propagation system for selected grapes.
