An Efficient In Vitro Propagation Protocol of Cocoyam [Xanthosoma sagittifolium (L) Schott]
Sprouted corm sections of "South Dade" white cocoyam were potted and maintained in a greenhouse for 8 weeks. Shoot tips of 3-5 mm comprising the apical meristem with 4-6 leaf primordial, and approximately 0.5 mm of corm tissue at the base. These explants were treated to be used into the culture medium. A modified Gamborg's B5 mineral salts supplemented with 0.05 μM 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA...
متن کاملPhysicochemical properties of food grade acetylated cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium) starches
Starch was isolated from cocoyam (Xanthosoma sagittifolium). It was further modified by acetylation using NaOH and NaHCO3 at room temperature (28±3 oC). The pasting and physicochemical properties of the native and modified starches were then studied. Pasting properties of the alkaline modified cocoyam starches showed higher peak viscosities (245.92-256.96 RVU) compared to low peak viscosity (21...
متن کاملEffect of drought stress on the induction of summer dormancy and dry matter partitioning in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) ecotypes
Study of potential of alfalfa ecotypes in biomass partitioning and harvestable and non-harvestable parts as well as induction of summer dormancy under water scarcity can lead to develop adapted cultivars for sustainable farming system andto meet targets of the breeding program. Therefore, this experiment was conducted with 10 alfalfa ecotypes under four irrigation managements at Seed and Plant ...
متن کاملGrowth and dry matter partitioning in sugar beet plants (Beta vulgaris L.) under moderate drought
Growth response of sugar beet plants to drought stress applied at different growth stages has been investigated. Cessation of watering imposed moderate water stress and resulted in the reduction of the relative water content of young and old leaves maximally by 6%. However, water content in taproot was more drastically decreased than in the shoot. Water withholding reduced dry ma�er accumulatio...
