Focuses on the environmental origin of antibiotic resistance genes. Occurrence of antibiotic
resistance determinants in the environment by means of chemical or heavy metal pollution; …

The roots of higher plants comprise a metabolically active and largely unexplored biological
frontier. Some of their prime features include the ability to synthesize a remarkably diverse …

Explants from seeds of Silybum marianum were used to produce either transformed ('hairy')
or untransformed root cultures. Silybin, isosilybin, silychristin and silydianin were found in …

The infection of plants by Agrobacterium rhizogenes results in a “hairy root” phenotype
characterized by rapid growth in hormone-free medium, an unusual ageotropism and …

A protocol for rapid in vitro-multiplication of Plumbago zeylanica L. through axillary bud
proliferation was developed as an essential prerequisite to conduct genetic transformation …

A wild strain of Agrobacterium rhizogenes was used to regenerate twelve in vitro plant lines
from different hairy roots of H. perforatum (St. John's Wort). The production of the main …

Plant tissue culture (PTC) is a set of techniques for the aseptic culture of cells, tissues,
organs and their components under defined physical and chemical conditions in vitro and …

Hairy roots are formed by genetic transformation of plant cells using Agrobacterium
rhizogenes. Integration into the plant genome of T-DNA from the bacterial root-inducing (Ri) …

Polyisoprenoid alcohols of the plant Coluria geoides were isolated and analyzed by HPLC
with UV detection to determine the nature of the polyprenol and dolichol mixture in the …

In this study, an efficient transformation system for the medicinal plant Anisodus acutangulus
was successfully developed and optimized using Agrobacterium rhizogenes. Three bacterial …
