Influence of different factors on the germination of encapsulated somatic embryos of Saccharum spp hybrid var Cuba 87-51
Journal Title: Biotecnología Vegetal - Year 2001, Vol 1, Issue 2
Abstract
With the objective to regenerate plants from sugarcane somatic embryos encapsulated in sodium alginate hidrogel different factors was studied. The addition of coconut water, GA3 (0.5 mg.l-1) and 6-BAP (0.2 mg.l-1) to the synthetic endosperm increased the velocity and germination percentage of somatic embryos encapsulated. The immersion treatment in 50mM solution of KNO3 during five hours improved the encapsulated somatic embryos germination percentage.
