| Abstract | Pumpkin ash (Fraxinus profunda (Bush) Bush) is at risk for extirpation by an exotic insect, the emerald ash borer (EAB). Pumpkin ash is limited to wetland areas of the Eastern United States, and has been listed as an endangered species because of EAB activity. Pumpkin ash provides many benefits to the ecosystem, and its wood is used in the manufacturing industry. In vitro regeneration provides an integral tool for the mass propagation and genetic transformation of pumpkin ash to combat EAB. Therefore, a plant regeneration protocol was developed for pumpkin ash. Aseptically extracted hypocotyls formed adventitious shoots following 4 weeks on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0–22.2 μM 6-benzyladenine (BA) and 0–6.8 μM thidiazuron (TDZ) then transferred for an additional 4 weeks on MS medium with Gamborg B5 vitamins plus 0.2 g L$^{−1}$ glycine (B5G) containing 6.7 μM BA, 1 μM indole-3-butryic acid (IBA), and 0.29 μM gibberellic acid (GA$_{3}$). As adventitious shoots developed, these were transferred to a MSB5G medium with 13.3 μM BA, 1 μM IBA, and 0.29 μM GA$_{3}$ for shoot elongation. Elongated shoots were successfully micropropagated using MSB5 medium with 10 μM BA and 10 μM TDZ. Adventitious root formation was as high as 94% using woody plant medium supplemented with 4.9 μM IBA with shoots cultured for 10 days in the dark followed by culture under a 16-h photoperiod. Acclimatization to the greenhouse was successful and normal plant growth was observed. This protocol will provide a means for genetic transformation for EAB resistance and mass propagation for conservation. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
