Salt Stress By Nacl Alters The Physiology And Biochemistry Of Tissue Culture-Grownstevia Rebaudiana Bertoni, Rabia Javed, Ekrem Gürel
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
This study reports the response to salinity stress (100 mM, 200 mM, and 300 mM NaCl concentration) exposure of the commercially valuable medicinal plant Stevia rebaudiana during micropropagation for 4 weeks. The significant enhancement of physiological parameters, steviol glycosides (SGs), i.e. rebaudioside A and stevioside, as examined by high-performance liquid chromatography, and nonenzymatic antioxidant activities, i.e. total phenolic content, total flavonoid content, total antioxidant capacity, total reducing power, and DPPH-free radical scavenging activity, was observed during the shoot formation process under up to 100 mM NaCl stress. Callus formation produced similar results regarding physiology and antioxidant assays, except that it …

Improvement Of Rebaudioside A Diterpene Glycoside Content In Stevia Rebaudianabertoni Using Clone Selection, Begüm Kaplan, Kenan Turgut
Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry
This study, conducted in Antalya, Turkey, between 2014 and 2016, aimed to determine genotypes with a high amount of rebaudioside A (reb A) and high reb A/stevioside (stv) ratio in Stevia rebaudiana Bertoni, and reveal superior candidate varieties via the clone selection method. The study started with 200 genotypes in the first year, followed by the stem cuttings of 40 genotypes selected in the second year, in accordance with the obtained data, which were grown in rows (A clones), and the 10 genotypes (B clones) selected from the clones in the third year, which were grown in 3 replications according …
