Ph.D. Degree in Botany (University of Pune)

Title of the Ph.D.Thesis: “Studies on Production of Medicinally important metabolites in Tribulus terrestris L. and Boerhavia diffusa L. through tissue culture”.

Research Guide: Dr. T. D. Nikam, Department of Botany, University of Pune

Research Work carried out for Ph.D. Degree

  • In-vitro propagation protocol developed for Tribulus terrestris L. and Boerhavia diffusa L. and caulogenesis has obtained from nodal explants of Tribulus terrestris L. and Boerhavia diffusa L.  
  • Rhizogenesis obtained from leaf, node, internode, and root explant of Tribulus terrestris L. and Boerhavia diffusa L.
  • Protocol for induction and maintenance of callus has established.
  • Somatic embryogenesis achieved from leaf and stem callus of Tribulus terrestris L. and developed a rapid in-vitro propagation protocol through somatic embryogenesis.
  • For enhancement of secondary metabolite production, calli of both the plant species were grown on the medium supplemented with precursors and elicitors.
  • Estimation of secondary metabolites from callus obtained with different culture conditions and naturally grown plant parts has carried out.
  • Use of biotic elicitor showed increased production of secondary metabolite than in- vitro obtained shoots, roots, callus and naturally grown plant material.
  • Use of organic supplement showed best results for increasing production of important metabolites in callus cultures.
