Genotypic-Unspecific Protocols For The Commercial Micropropagation Of Eucalyptus Grandis × Nitens And E. Grandis × Urophylla, Maria Paula Watt Jan 2014

Genotypic-Unspecific Protocols For The Commercial Micropropagation Of Eucalyptus Grandis × Nitens And E. Grandis × Urophylla, Maria Paula Watt

Turkish Journal of Agriculture and Forestry

Clones of Eucalyptus grandis × nitens and E. grandis × urophylla were subjected to various culture conditions at every culture stage leading to plantlet regeneration directly from axillary buds. The objective was to determine the possibility of using the same protocol for all clones. Although genotypic effects were evident, generally most clones responded similarly to the tested variations in each of the protocol stages, i.e. bud break, multiplication, and rooting. Estimated yields for the clones of one of the tested E. grandis × nitens hybrids ranged from 24 to 90 acclimatised plants per explant, but those of a natural hybrid …

Iron (Fe) deficiency is one of the common problems in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) growing regions. In vitro screening enables researchers to evaluate genotype performance under several concentrations of Fe in a relatively fast and economical way. Therefore, we evaluated the responses of several genotypes belonging to octoploid Fragaria chiloensis (L.) Mill. and Fragaria virginiana Mill. (the progenitors of cultivated strawberry) against Fe treatments under in vitro conditions. In the first experiment, HM 1, Pigeon Point, CFRA1267 (F. chiloensis subsp. pacifica), and CA1541 (F. chiloensis subsp. chiloensis) were tested with various Fe concentrations (0%, 10%, 15%, 25%, 50%, 65%, …
