TLDR
Effects of using carrot juice in the in vitro growth of Daucus carota were investigated and revealed the presence of both indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and abscissic acid (ABA) in the carrot juice, while gibberellic acid was absent.Abstract:
Effects of using carrot juice in the in vitro growth of Daucus carota were investigated. Callus was the only form of growth obtained after five weeks in culture. The increase in fresh weight, dry weight and moisture content of the explants with increasing concentration of carrot juice in the medium was much lower when compared to either the cytokinin benzyladenine (BA) and/or the auxin picloram. Spectrophotometric and chromatographic analyses revealed the presence of both indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and abscissic acid (ABA) in the carrot juice, while gibberellic acid was absent.

Application of carrot root extract induced salinity tolerance in cowpea (vigna sinensis l.) seedlings
TL;DR: Low concentration of carrot root extract was more effective in reducing the adverse effects of salinity through the enhancement of multiple processes and induced the synthesis of certain proteins and simultaneously decreased the expression of other protein sets.

Comparison Effects of Sucrose and Date Palm Syrup on Somatic Embryogenesis of Date Palm (Phoenix dactylifera L )
TL;DR: Adding date syrup locally known as 'Dibs' to the culture medium of date palm at concentration of 6% can be used totally as a replacement of sucrose which was the normally sugar used in most of plant tissue culture medium.
