  1. 1. Why coconut water is both a biostimulant and an anti-cancer agent

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Estefany Reyes Estevez; [2021]
    Keywords : Cocos nucifera; phytohormones; cytokinins; kinetin; kinetin riboside; zeatin; iP; functional foods; cancer; cell cycle; micropropagation; tissue culture;

    Abstract : Coconut water (CW) naturally contains phytohormones called cytokinins, which exist in different forms like kinetin, kinetin riboside and zeatin. The bioactive cytokinins in plants are the zeatin-type, and these natural compounds exert many vital plant physiological effects. READ MORE

  2. 2. The use of tissue culture methods for producing resistant material of Aesculus hippocastanum : a literature study

    University essay from SLU/Dept. Of Plant Breeding

    Author : Johan Pettersson; [2020]
    Keywords : Aesculus hippocastanum; resistance; tissue culture; micropropagation; somatic embryogenesis; mikroförökning; somatisk embryogenes;

    Abstract : The horse chestnut Aesculus hippocastanum is a European species of broadleaf trees classified as vulnerable. The species is subjected to many pathogens and pests threatening its survival. Resistance to some pathogens of horse chestnut has been investigated and tissue culture methods such as somatic embryogenesis have been successful. READ MORE

  3. 3. Odlingsvärd medicinalväxt Schisandra chinensis fjärilsranka

    University essay from SLU/Dept. of Biosystems and Technology (from 130101)

    Author : Susanne Stenqvist; [2016]
    Keywords : Schisandra; medicinalväxt; lignaner; sekundära metaboliter; adaptogen; basala angiospermer;

    Abstract : Schisandra chinensis är en tvåhjärtbladig växt och ingår i familjen Schisandraceae och i släktet Schisandra. Släktet innehåller ett tjugotal arter som är klätterväxter. Blommorna är oftast enkönade, blomställningen är enkel. Frukten är ett aggregat och är fäst längs med den förlängda blomaxeln. READ MORE

  4. 4. Evaluation of a new type of temporaryimmersion system (TIS) bioreactors for plantmicropropagation

    University essay from SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Author : Johanna Persson; [2012]
    Keywords : bioreactor; conductivity; Digitalis; Echinacea; liquid medium; mass propagation; medium analyzes; micropropagation; nutrients; pH; Rubus; semi-automatic; sugars; temporary immersion system;

    Abstract : Micropropagation has been revealed to be an efficient propagation method for production of large quantities of true to type and disease free plants, while traditional methods of micropropagation on solid medium are limited in commercial production due to high labor costs. Bioreactor production in liquid medium has therefore been studied and tested in recent years, but there are still no appropriate types of bioreactors until now. READ MORE

  5. 5. Storskalig mikroförökning av Malus domestica, Solanum tuberosum och Rubus idaeus i bioreaktorer

    University essay from SLU/Plant Breeding and Biotechnology (until 121231)

    Author : Rikard Holst; [2011]
    Keywords : mikroförökning; potatis; äpple; hallon; äpple; cytokinin; auxin; gibberellinsyra; bioreaktor; agar;

    Abstract : The importance of micropropagation has increased to provide the increasing fields with true to type and healthy plants. Traditional plants are growing on solid agar-based medium but lately liquid medium has become a new opportunity. This study has focused on a new bioreactor, developed on large scale micropropagation. Potato (Solanum tuberosum L. READ MORE
