Dr. Khiyon Ali Mohsen Chairs a Master's Thesis Defense on Nanoparticles and Fungal Growth in Tissue Culture
Dr. Khiyon Ali Mohsen, Head of the Propagation Department at the Date Palm Research Center, University of Basra, chaired the defense committee for a master's thesis at the College of Agriculture and Marshes, University of Dhi Qar. The thesis, presented by researcher Amani Shakib Sharif, is titled "The Effect of Medium Type and Silver Nanoparticles on Fungal Growth in Tissue Culture."
The study aimed to identify fungi affecting grafts grown in tissue culture laboratories and examine the impact of sucrose and acidity on fungal growth. Additionally, it focused on the biogenic synthesis of silver nanoparticles and evaluating their effectiveness in inhibiting fungal growth and reducing contamination in tissue-cultured eggplant plants.
