Effect of macronutrients and sucrose concentration on in vitro growth of Drosera capensis L. (Droseraceae) plants, and evaluation of six substrates for acclimatization
(2011-01)
The effect of two concentrations of the Murashige and Skoog macronutrients (full and half strength), in combination with three concentrations of sucrose (1.5, 3.0 and 4.5% w/v), was evaluated on the in vitro growth of ...
Response of Endogenous Hormone Concentrations to Two Floral Inductive Treatments, viz. KNO3 and PBZ, in Mango cv. ‘Tommy Atkins’ Growing Under Tropical Conditions
(2012-07-20)
Floral induction (FI) has been intensively studied in mango, more under sub-tropical than under tropical environments. Decreases in temperature below 20 °C, which is common in sub-tropical regions but seldom occurs in many ...
Challenges for Food and Nutrition Security in the Americas: Costa Rica and its commitment to sustainability

Caracterización anatómica ultraestructural de las variantes “Atlántica”, “Sur” y “Cebolla” del bambú, Guadua angustifolia (Poaceae: Bambusoideae), en Costa Rica
(2006-08-20)
We present an ultrastructural characterization of three variants or “forms” of Guadua angustifolia
and of the closely related Guadua sp., from Costa Rican populations. Their ultrastructure is similar. Differences are: ...

Se evaluaron ultraestructuralmente secciones de la lámina de la hoja, vaina de la hoja y rama, de una planta adulta de Guadua macclurei. Las brácteas del culmo carecen de setas orales. En la superficie adaxial de la lámina ...
Evolution of endogenous hormone concentration in embryogenic cultures of carrot during early expression of somatic embryogenesis
(2004-09)
Embryogenic callus and suspension cultures of carrot (Daucus carota L., cv. Nantaise), growing on/in medium including 1 mg/l 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D), were transferred to medium with or without this plant ...
In vitro propagation of the neotropical giant bamboo, Guadua angustifolia Kunth, through axillary shoot proliferation
(2006)
Guadua angustifolia Kunth was successfully propagated in vitro from axillary buds. Culture initiation, bud sprouting, shoot and plant multiplication, rooting and acclimatization, were evaluated. Best results were obtained ...
