In vitro microtuberization in potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) cultivars.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Mechanism of microtuberization in three elite cultivars kufri badhsha (KB), kufri chandramukhi (KCM) and kufri jawahar (KJ) of potato was studied. Sprouts of all the three cultivars were used to obtain in vitro shoot cultures. MS medium supplemented with chlorocholine chloride was found to be most suitable for all the cultivars. Maximum tuberization was obtained under incubation conditions of continuous darkness at 20 degrees +/- 1 degrees C. The highest number of micro-tubers per plant basis was produced under continuous darkness and KCM recorded the highest yield of micro-tubers and was found significantly superior to KJ and KB.

Effects of Calcium Concentrations in Medium on Microtuberization of Potato (Solanum tuberosumL.)
It is now widely accepted that calcium (Ca) deficiency is linked to potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) tuber disorders and improved tuber health is expected through increased Ca availability. The purpose of this study was to optimize the Ca concentration in Murashige-Skoog (MS) basal medium for microtuber production and determine microtuber mineral composition, especially Ca content. The response of...

متن کاملThe Effects of Different Concentrations of Nitrogen Sources on Growth of Micropropagated Potato Cultivars
The use of nitrogen in nutrient media is essential for growth and helps identify highly productive media for potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) micropropagation and adventitious shoot formation. Three potato cultivars (Agria, Marfona and Savalan cultivars) were examined for their growth response with medium containing four different levels of KNO3 (1, 1.25, 1.5 and 1.75 times as much 1.9 g l-1) and ...
