Single nodes and axillary buds excised from adult trees of Myrtle (Myrtus communis L.) grown in the field under natural conditions at Damascus countryside (Ain Elfiegh) were used as primary explants, which were surfacedisinfected by 70% Ethanol and Clorox containing 5.25 % Sodium Hypoclorite with a drop of Tween 20 for different periods and concentrations before being placed onto MS basal medium. Established cultures were then transferred onto MS basal medium containing a combination of growth regulators at different concentrations (BA at 2.22 and 4.44 μM) each with NAA at 0.54, 1.62, 5.4 μM or 1.47 μM IBA with GA3 at 0.58 μM for all tratments. Multiplication rate of 12.8-fold was achieved every 4 weeks on MS medium supplemented with 4.44 μM BA with 1.47 μM IBA and GA3 at 0.58 μM.

This research was carried out to determine the quantity of essential oil extracted from myrtle Myrtus communis L leaves, by hydro distillation, and to identify the major and minor components, besides to determine its quantities in the essential oil by Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry GC-MS. The samples were collected on November 2013 from eight different climatic locations (Aleppo, Zarzour, Alzenea, Katra AL-Rayhan, Al- Rayhana, Kasab, Mashta al-Holou and Mosiaf). The quantity and composition of the essential oil were estimated on the basis of the leaves dry weight. Oil quantity varied between the studied genotypes from different locations, which range from 0.46 to 0.55 ml, with non-significant differences. Eighteen compounds were identified in myrtle essential oil, and there were significant differences in 13 compounds. 1,8-Cineole performed the highest rate (18.85%) compared with other components, followed by α-Pinene (16.93%). While the lowest percentage was (0.31%) of Myrcene. The
Ziziphora canescens is a species of important medicinal plants in Syria due to its medicinal properties as antibiotic, flavors and spices in various foods. This plant is important, especially in folk medicine in some areas (Kalamoon) on the one ha nd, and retreat of its spread which may lead eventually to its extinction on the other hand, so a protocol for rapid micropropagation has been developing by using lateral and apical buds on nutrient media MS supplemented with different types and concentrations of plant growth regulators.
This research was conducated on Ceratonia siliqua L. in vitro to study the effect of some growth regulators in both multiplication and rooting stage. And determine the best concentrations wich lead the highest rate of multiplication (interms of number of shoots and length), and the best rooting (interms of percentage of rooting, number of roots and length).
Olive trees are grown in many regions of Syria, especially in wet regions where the olive knot disease (Pseudomonas savastanoi pv.savastanoi ) prevails .Symptoms similar to those found on olive trees have been observed on myrtle shrubs (Myrtus com munis) growing naturally in some olive-grown regions. This study aimed at identifying the pathogen isolated from myrtle plant, and testing the pathogenicity of these isolates on olive trees. Morphological, biochemical and serological tests of bacteria isolated from myrtle showed similarity to those from olive and other hosts. Pathogenicity tests showed that the myrtle isolates were pathogenic on both myrtle and olive trees. Myrtle could be considered as a source of inoculum for the olive knot disease.
This investigation was conducted on Ru140 grape rootstock at the General Commission for Scientific Agricultural Research (GCSAR), Damascus with the aim of in vitro vegetatively micropropagation using some plant growth regulators on multiplication and rooting to determine the best combinations and concentrations of plant growth regulators that result in the best multiplication rate, and best rooting crekeria (rate and roots number and length). Results demonstrated that, the best medium for in vitro micropropagation of the studied rootstock was the modified MS medium supplemented with 4.44 μM BA + 0.49 μM IBA with multiplication rate of 7.72 new shoots every 4 weeks, and shoots lengt of 5.54 cm. These shoots were transferred for 4 weeks to among elongation medium containing the same medium with the addition of Kinetine at a concentration of 2.22 μM instead of BA which led to a shoot elongation rate of 7.87 cm, then these shoots were transferred to rooting medium for rooting, It was shown that using auxin IBA at a concentration of 4.44 μM resulted at the highest rate of rooting (87%) with the largest number of roots (7.56) when using the auxin IBA concentration μM 4.44 compared with the rest of other transactions and with the control as well. However, The highest length of roots (6.29 cm) was observed on medim contained lower IBA concentration (2.22 μM). Rooted Plants were acclimatized gradually to ex vitro conditions with 70 % efficiency.
