Media

Composition of the media

Callus induction media

MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of 2,4-D (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, 3.0, 3.5, 4.0, 5.0 mg/l)

MS resuspension media

MS salts and vitamins were supplemented with 68 g/l sucrose, 36 g/l glucose, 3 g/l KCl, 4 g/l MgCl2, and dH2O. pH was adjusted to 5.2.

Infection medium

Infection medium was prepared by adding bacterial culture in MS resuspension medium in an appropriate ratio to adjust OD600  to 0.5.

Co-cultivation media

MS medium was fortified with 30 g/l sucrose, 10 g/l glucose, 3.0 mg/l 2,4-D and dH2O. pH was adjusted to 5.2. After autoclaving the MS medium different concentrations of filter-sterilized acetosyringone (0 μM, 100 μM, 150 μM, and 200 μM) were added.

Selection media

MS medium was supplemented with 30 g/l sucrose and 3.0 mg/l 2,4-D followed by adjustment to the required volume with dH2O and pH adjustment to 5.8. After autoclave filter sterilized kanamycin 100 mg/l was added.

Regeneration media

MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of BA and NAA.

Rooting medium

MS medium containing no hormone.
