Regeneration of bulblets from twin scales ofCrinum macowanii in vitro
TL;DR: Tissue culture techniques were applied to study the regeneration and growth of bulblets from bulb scale segments of Crinum macowanii Bak.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro propagation of Amaryllis belladonna
TL;DR: Different plant parts were tested as explant material, but plantlets could only be generated from the twin-scales and immature scapes, and the best results were obtained when a sucrose concentration of 2–3% was used.
Journal ArticleDOI
Adventitious in vitro plantlet formation from immature floral stems of Crinum macowanii
TL;DR: Although a slight degree of callus formation was noticed on the cut-edges of the discs, shoot formation did not occur via callus, but directly from the floral stem epidermis, and the highest number of shoots were regenerated when immature floral stems of 70–100 mm were used as starting material.
