Asymbiotic Germination and Leaf Explant-Based Regeneration of the Endangered Medicinal Orchid Hemipilia cucullata from Mature Seeds
Published on: September 19, 2025
Abstract:
A method for micropropagation of Valeriana edulis ssp. procera is described. In four weeks, plantlets from aseptically germinated seeds formed adventitious shoots in B5 medium with (5.0 mg/l) BA and (0.2 mg/l) IAA. Rooting was performed in B5 medium with (0.4 mg/l) IAA and (2.0%) sucrose. Plantlets were acclimatized.

Seedless Vascular Plants Were the First Tall Plants on Earth
Asexual Reproduction
Asexual reproduction allows plants to reproduce without growing flowers, attracting pollinators, or dispersing seeds. Offspring are genetically identical to the parent and produced without the fusion of male and female gametes.
Non-vascular Seedless Plants
The diverse plant life on Earth—consisting of nearly 400,000 species—can be divided into three broad categories based on biological characteristics: nonvascular, seedless vascular, and seed plants.
