ISHS Acta Horticulturae 227: International Symposium on Vegetative Propagation of Woody Species
USE OF "IN VITRO" TECHNIQUES FOR SELECTION AND CLONING OF DIFFERENT PISTACIA SPECIES |
| Author: | A. Martinelli |
| Abstract:
The experiences and results achieved on micropropagation of different species of Pistacia at the Zanzivivai-Ferrara laboratory are described. Our interest was particularly drawn to P. integerrima for which a propagation technique is now ready. By such a technique it has already been possible to obtain some thousands of plantlets of different clones. P. atlantica and P. vera are giving encouraging results even if they still need a specific setting-up. The main problems we faced were browning of shoots and culture medium, and shoot tip necrosis. | |
