    Notes: Abstract Callus was induced from leaf segments of aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) on modified B5 (mB5) medium with 0.1 mg/1 benzyladenine (BA) and 0.5 mg/1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). The resulting callus was either subcultured to solidified Woody Plant Medium (WPM) with 0.5 mg/1 BA directly for shoot regeneration or sieved into liquid mB5 medium for suspension culture. After 3 weeks of suspension culture, when the callus clumps grew to 3–4 mm in diameter, they were transferred onto solidified WPM with 0.5 mg/1 BA for shoot regeneration. Almost 100% of the clumps formed shoots on WPM when subcultured directly from mB5 with an average number of 6 shoots per callus. When transferred from suspension culture in mB5 to WPM, an average of 6 shoots per callus were produced from 51% of calli. These shoots could be easily rooted on either mB5 or WPM with 0.2 mg/1 indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and transferred to pots. Transplanted plants were kept under intermittent mist for 2–4 weeks before normal growth in the green house.

    Notes: Abstract Pigment as well as isozyme variations were observed among aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) plants regenerated from callus cultures. Out of more than 600 plantlets, two chimeric plants (one with green base and two albino shoots and the other with an albino shoot) were produced. Callus derived from albino shoots produced albino as well as chimeric plants when transferred to shoot inducing medium. Isozyme patterns of 119 plants were examined by starch gel electrophoresis. Thirty plants showed variation in shikimic dehydrogenase isozyme and 41 in isocitric dehydrogenase. Variation was also observed in malate dehydrogenase and phosphoglucose isomerase. No variation was seen in 6-phosphogluconate dehydrogenase. Pigment variation was not associated with any isozyme changes.

    Notes: Abstract S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase (SAMDC; EC 4.1.1.50) is a key regulatory enzyme in the polyamine biosynthetic pathway. Numerous studies have shown that the enzyme activity and polyamine levels are generally correlated with cellular growth in plants, animals and bacteria. In order to gain more insight into the role of polyamines in plants, human SAMDC cDNA under control of the 35S promoter of cauliflower mosaic virus, along with a neomycin phosphotransferase gene, was transferred to tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv. Xanthi) viaAgrobacterium tumefaciens. Transgenic plants showed the presence of human SAMDC mRNA and a 2-4-fold increase in SAMDC activity. In the transformed tissues, putrescine levels were significantly reduced, while spermidine content was 2–3 times higher than the control tissues. Cellular spermine content was either increased or remained unchanged. Excised leaf segments from transformed plants frequently produced shoots even on callus inducing medium.
