The present application discloses a woody rootstock for efficient grafting of solanaceous vegetables and an efficient grafting and seedling culture method thereof. According to the present application, a woody rootstock clone with high consistency is provided through tissue culture, efficient grafting is completed through sleeve grafting technology, and the grafting survival rate is improved by regulating the healing environment. A new idea for efficient industrial grafting of solanaceous vegetables is provided, scions are imparted with new features through distant grafting, and the problems of low grafting efficiency and low survival rate are solved. The method has the advantages of strong operability, simplicity, high efficiency and low cost, and provides a technical support for the industrial production of grafted seedlings of solanaceous vegetables.

The present disclosure provides approaches for reducing tobacco-specific nitrosamines (TSNAs) in tobacco. Some of these approaches include genetically engineering tobacco plants to increase one or more antioxidants, increase oxygen radicle absorbance capacity (ORAC), or reduce nitrite. Also provided are methods and compositions for producing modified tobacco plants and tobacco products therefrom comprising reduced TSNAs.

The present invention relates to excision of explant material comprising meristematic tissue from seeds, and storage of such material prior to subsequent use in plant tissue culture and genetic transformation. Methods for tissue preparation, storage, and transformation are disclosed, as is transformable meristem tissue produced by such methods, and apparati for tissue preparation.

A method, apparatus, and system are provided for the printing and maturation of living tissue in an Earth-referenced reduced gravity environment such as that found on a spacecraft or on other celestial bodies. The printing may be three-dimensional structures. The printed structures may be manufactured from low viscosity biomaterials.

The present invention relates to methods and compositions for transforming soybean, corn, cotton, or canola explants using spectinomycin as a selective agent for transformation of the explants. The method may further comprise treatment of the explants with cytokinin during the transformation and regeneration process.

The present invention relates to a method for producing a dimeric stilbene using a plant callus culture solution. More specifically, the present invention relates to a method for producing a dimeric stilbene using a plant callus culture solution and a composition for dimeric stilbene production, which contains a plant callus culture solution as an active ingredient.

The present disclosure provides a standardized and virus-free rapid propagation method of Dianthus caryophyllus, belonging to the technical field of asexual propagation. The method includes the following steps: conducting virus detection on a Dianthus caryophyllus explant, and inoculating the explant into an induction medium for induction culture; after the explant germinates, cutting buds, and determining whether a virus-free treatment is required according to a virus detection result, and continuing cultivating the buds; after cultivating to obtain cluster buds, inoculating the cluster buds into an expanding propagation medium for expanding propagation, and conducting the virus detection to eliminate a virus-carrying material; conducting expanding propagation on a virus-free material to a certain base, and transferring the virus-free material to a rooting medium for rooting culture.

The present disclosure provides a method for obtaining adventitious tetraploid buds of Blumea balsamifera, comprising the following steps: selecting a root segment of diploid B. balsamifera as an explant, culturing the root segment in a chromosome doubling inducing medium supplemented with 0.025-0.1 mg/L 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 1.0-2.0 mg/L 6-benzylaminopurine (6-BA), and 90-150 mg/L colchicine, inducing explant cells, and simultaneously doubling chromosomes and differentiating the adventitious buds. The present disclosure fills the blank of using a root of B. balsamifera as the explant and increases effective explant sources during the propagation, proliferation and biotechnological breeding of B. balsamifera. More importantly, root cells of the B. balsamifera are directly differentiated into adventitious buds while chromosomes are doubled, and a callus formation process is not needed, so that the technical links are simplified and the variation of regeneration buds and the generation of chimeras are reduced.
