Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of streptomycin on diploid tobacco callus cultures and the isolation of resistant mutants
Nakdimon Umiel,Rina Goldner +1 more
TL;DR: Diploid callus cultures from four genetic lines of tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) were grown in the presence of 0–2 mg/ml streptomycin sulfate, using as criteria for isolation either the ability of the callus to grow green, or a better rate of growth as indicated by the size of white callus.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of sugar concentrations on growth greening and shoot formation in callus cultures from four genetic lines of tobacco
Rivka Barg,Nakdimon Umiel +1 more
TL;DR: Lowering the sucrose content in the medium causes a decrease in growth of tobacco callus cultures, and at low sucrose concentrations the cultures developed a darker-green color, and produced a higher number of shoots in a shorter time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Streptomycin Resistance in Tobacco: III. A Test on Germinating Seedlings indicates Cytoplasmic Inheritance in the St-R701 Mutant
TL;DR: Genetic studies indicate that, in the St-R701 line which was derived from a spontaneous mutation in diploid callus culture, the streptomycin resistance is cytoplasmically inherited.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of tobacco seedlings and callus cultures in the presence of amitrole
Rivka Barg,Nakdimon Umiel +1 more
TL;DR: Evidences were found, supporting the notion that amitrole has several modes of action, and the advantages of plants' tissue cultures for selecting herbicide resistant mutants are demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
The Growth of Carrot Callus Cultures at Various Concentrations and Composition of Saline Water
TL;DR: It is concluded that growth inhibition was caused main by the increased osmotic pressure while the inhibition of green color formation and the necrosis were caused mainly by the high concentration of salt(s).
