Popis: | Micropropagation and microtuberization in potato plants are both affected by plant hormones and photoperiod. To study the effect of these factors on potato cultivars ‘Arbolona negra’ (AN) and ‘Granola’ (G), microcuttings of each cultivar were cultured on MS liquid medium supplemented with sucrose 25 g/L, with or without gibberellins (GA). These microcuttings were incubated under continuous light. In order to induce microtuberization, the obtained vitroplantlets were subcultured on MS medium supplemented with sucrose 50 g/L, three concentrations of BA (0, 1 and 5 mg/L) and incubated under different light patterns. GA pre-treatment induced shoots elongation on AN but not on G cultivar. The highest microtubers production for both cultivars was achieved on MS medium supplemented with BA 5 mg/L under short day light condition without GA pretreatment. The in vitro culture of microcuttings on culture media supplemented with BA and sucrose, incubated under short day conditions, allowed microtubers production in a shorter time lapse. |
