Genome size and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) analysis of field-grown and in vitro regenerated Pluchea lanceolata plants.

ABSTRACT: Pluchea lanceolata is a threatened pharmacologically important plant from the family Asteraceae. It is a source of immunologically active compounds; large-scale propagation may offer compounds with medicinal benefits. Traditional propagation method is ineffective as the seeds are not viable; and root sprout propagation is a slow process and produces less numbers of plants. Plant tissue culture technique is an alternative, efficient method for increasing mass propagation and it also facilitate genetic improvement. The present study investigated a three-way regeneration system in P. lanceolata using indirect shoot regeneration (ISR), direct shoot regeneration (DSR), and somatic embryo mediated regeneration (SER). Aseptic leaf and nodal explants were inoculated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) med
