A process with controlled pattern of regenerant differentiation from leaflet segments leading to production of cloned plants of a 40-year-old tree of Azadirachta indica was developed.Atwo-step procedure was adopted for containing intervening callusing during regenerant differentiation using modified Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, where in the first step the explants were subjected to pulse treatments having higher concentration of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), while in the second step they were cultured in one-tenth of the initial concentrations of BAP. In the present case, simultaneous differentiation of two types of morphogenetic structures, that is, shoot buds and the meristematic nodules was observed. However, differentiation of higher number of desirable regenerants—the shoot buds and a few meristematic nodules, rather than vice-versa could be controlled by increasing both, the concentration of BAP in pulse treatment and the duration of pulse treatment. In the optimum treatment, where the explants were exposed to 8.88 µM BAP and 81.43 µM adenine hemisulphate for 5 days followed by their transfer to 0.88 µM BAP and 81.43 µM adenine hemisulphate, on an average, 17.4 shoot buds and only 1.6 meristematic nodules were formed from a leaflet. On subculturing, the shoot buds developed into shoots, whereas the meristematic nodules produced three kinds of organized structures that too in varied proportions. Multiplication of shoots was sustained in proliferation medium supplemented with 1.11 µMBAP, 1.43 µMindole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 135.72 µM adenine hemisulphate. The isolated shoots were rooted and complete plantlets were transferred to potted soil with 100% survival.
Discovering the complexity of seed structure and function along with a number of vital processes such as seed growth and development, germination are important factors in unlocking the secrets of consistent crop yield. Fenugreek (Trigonella foenum-graecum L.), a multi-purpose annual, dryland-adapted, forage, legume crop is cultivated in different parts of the world with great potential for introduction under suitable agro-climatic zones in sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America. Fenugreek seed is used extensively for its medicinal, pharmaceutical and nutraceutical properties. It is effective in the treatment of diabetes, hyperglycaemia (thyroxine-induced type) and hypercholesterolemia. This review discusses seed physiological processes and several important biochemical seed constituent, e.g., steroidal sapogenins (diosgenin), polysaccharide fiber (galactomannan), amino acid (4-hydroxyisoleucine), etc, with important medicinal and pharmacological characteristics impacting human and animal health. However, there are noticeable differences in the quality of several phytochemicals found in fenugreek seed possibly due to variations in plant genotypes and agroclimatic conditions under which the crop is grown. Hence, it is important to note that for consistent seed yield and quality of fenugreek cultivars there is an urgent need for continuing efforts in genetic improvements and in developing high yielding, disease and drought-resistant varieties suitable for different agro-climatic conditions. Therefore, in addition to the physico-biochemistry of fenugreek seed different approaches for genetic improvement have also been discussed.
