Pure lines of 3 pepper genotypes, including one tolerant (Alata 421) and one intolerant (Alata 195) to lower temperatures and one intolerant (Alata 277A) to higher temperatures, together with one variety (Inan3363) tolerant to higher temperatures, were selected from the pepper collection of Alata Horticultural Research Institute (Mersin, Turkey). Two different culture media (Medium 1 - Murashige and Skoog [MS] + 4 mg L-1 naphthalene acetic acid [NAA] + 0.1 mg L-1 6-benzylaminopurine [BAP] + 0.25% activated charcoal + 8 g L-1 agar + 30 g L-1 sucrose + 15 mg L-1 silver nitrate [AgNO3]; Medium 2 - MS + …

Sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is one of the most important industrial crops throughout world. With the availability of suitable genetic transformation technologies, the yield, quality, and stress tolerance of sugar beet could be improved significantly. However, low transformation efficiencies seriously limit the application of molecular technologies to the genetic improvement of sugar beet. With the aim of improving gene transfer techniques for sugar beet, the effect of different sucrose concentrations during cocultivation on the initial Agrobacterium-mediated transformation efficiencies in sugar beet was tested. To develop an efficient experimental system through which the effect of sucrose could be tested, first, …
