| Abstract | Hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) is cultivated in many parts of the world for ils fiber, oil, and seed. The development of new hemp cultivars with improved traits could be facilitated through the application of biotechnological strategies. The purpose of this study was to investigate the propagation of hemp in tissue culture and to establish a protocol for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation for foreign gene introduction. Stem and leaf segments from seedlings of four hemp varieties were placed on Murashige and Skoog medium with Gamborg B5 vitamins (MB) supplemented with 5 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 1 μM kinetin, 3% sucrose, and 8 gl$^{−1}$ agar. Large masses of callus were produced within 4 wk for all cultivars. Suspension cultures were established in MB medium containing 2.5 μM 2,4-D. To promote embryogenesis or organogenesis, explants, callus, and suspension cultures derived from a range of explant sources and seedling ages were exposed to variations in the culture medium and changes to the culture environment. None of the treatments tested were successful in promoting plantlet regeneration. Suspension cells were transformed with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain EHA101 carrying the binary vector pNOV3635 with a gene encoding phosphomannose isomerase (PMI). Transformed callus was selected on medium containing 1–2% mannose. A chlorophenol red assay was used to confirm that the PMI gene was expressed. Polymerase chain reaction and Southern hybridization detected the presence of the PMI gene. Copy number in different lines ranged from one to four. |

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.
