What is In Vitro Growth Reduction of Tomato and Carnation Microplants about?
Shoots which proliferated from shoot tip explants of 'Colorado White Simm' carnation and 'Fantastic' tomato on MS medium containing 5mgl -~ benzyladenine were rooted and grown in vitro as mieroplants. Tomato microplants grown in medium with 5 gl -~ sucrose had less overall shoot and root growth than those with 10, 20, or 30g1-1 sucrose regardless of NAA level. Carnation shoot growth was reduced by 5 g 1-1 sucrose but root growth was not affected except when no sucrose was supplied. Microplant height and rooting of carnation were maximal when grown in 20g 1-1 sucrose whereas tomato microplant growth was greatest with 30g1-1 sucrose. Microplants of both species had reduced height and root growth when the MS nutrient salts were lowered to 25%, 50%, or 75% compared to full strength when sucrose was supplied at 5gl -~ .
