Abstract: Aspects of the present invention relate to a multimode gaming server with different types of computing resources provided within the server. The different computing resources can be optimized for different computing tasks. For example, a first type of resource can be optimized for producing high definition graphics and a second type of resource for enterprise computing. Each resource may be activated or deactivated as demand for different computing tasks change throughout the day. In one aspect, the resources are different chip sets in different mother board sockets. In one aspect, provisioning of the other components (e.g., cooling, power supply, network bandwidth) in the multimode server is not adequate for both computing resources to run simultaneously.

Abstract: The present invention relates to novel method for micropropagation of tea plants from explants obtained from completely folded, half opened or fully expanded leaves via callus phase, by culturing the explants on different media.

Abstract: The invention a novel and efficient method for protoplast culture comprising the steps of isolating the protoplasts from a cell suspension, mixing the protoplasts with equal volumes of alginate solution, placing 40-50 &mgr;l of CaCl2 solution on a glass microslide, placing a mixture of protoplasts and alginate solution on the glass microslide and immediately covering by a glass coverglass, adding CaCl2 solution from the sides of coverglass, sliding down the coverglass towards one side and placing it in a petridish containing protoplast culture medium, sealing the petridishes, incubating it and transferring the extra thin alginate layer with celled colonies to regeneration medium for development of culture.

Abstract: The invention provides a one step method for micropropagation of tea plants from leaf explants via callus phase, wherein the explants are maintained in basal Murashige and Skoog medium (Murashige T. and Skoog F. A revised medium for rapid growth and bioassays with tobacco tissue cultures. Physiol. Plant. 15: 473-497; 1962) supplemented with vitamins like thiamine-HCl (0.05 to 2.0 mg/l), pyridoxine-HCl (0.25 to 1.5 mg/l) and nicotinic acid (0.25 to 1.5 mg/l) together with glycine (1.0 to 3.0 mg/l) and either 2.5, 5.0 or 7.5 mg/l 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy acetic acid for a period of 14-16 weeks, from the stage of induction of callus to rhizogenesis and shoot formation.
