Plant tissue culture (PTC) technology has gained unassailable
success for its various commercial and research applications in
plant sciences. Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are an essential
part of any plant tissue culture intervention for propagation or
modification of plants. A wide range of PGRs are available,
including aromatic compounds that show cytokinin activities,
promote cell division and micro-propagation, viz. kinetin,
N6-benzyladenine and topolins. Topolins are naturally occurring
aromatic compounds that have gained popularity as an effective
alternative for other frequently used cytokinins in in vitro
culture of plants. Among them, meta-topolin
[6-(3-hydroxybenzlyamino) purine] is the most popular and its use
in plant tissue culture has amplified swiftly. During the last few
decades, there have been numerous reports highlighting the
effectiveness of meta-topolin in micropropagation and alleviation
of various physiological disorders, rooting and acclimatization of
tissue culture raised plants.
This book presents basic concepts, methodologies and applications
of biotechnology for the conservation and propagation of aromatic,
medicinal and other economic plants. It caters to the needs and
challenges of researchers in plant biology, biotechnology, the
medical sciences, pharmaceutical biotechnology and pharmacology
areas by providing an accessible and cost-effective practical
approach to micro-propagation and conservation strategies for plant
species. It also includes illustrations describing a complete
documentation of the results and research into particular plant
species conducted by the authors over the past 5 years. Plant
Biotechnology has been a subject of academic interest for a
considerable time. In recent years, it has also become a useful
tool in agriculture and medicine, as well as a popular area of
biological research. Current economic growth is globally projected
in a highly positive manner, but the challenges many countries face
with regard to food, feed, malnutrition, infectious diseases, the
newly identified life-style diseases, and energy shortages, all of
which are worsened by an ever-deteriorating environment, continue
to pull the growth digits back. The common thread that connects all
of the above challenges is biotechnology, which could provide many
answers. Molecular biology and biotechnology have now become an
integral part of tissue culture research. The tremendous impact
generated by genetic engineering and consequently of transgenics
now allows us to manipulate plant genomes at will. There has indeed
been a rapid development in this area with major successes in both
developed and developing countries. The book introduces several new
and exciting areas to researchers who are unfamiliar with plant
biotechnology and also serves as a review of ongoing research and
future directions for scholars. The book highlights numerous
methods for in vitro propagation and utilization of techniques in
raising transgenics to help readers reproduce the experiments
discussed.
