Regeneration and evaluation of first and second cycle somaclones of 'Thornless Evergreen' blackberry (Rubus laciniatus) Willd.)

Abstract

dc:description

A reliable in vitro regeneration system was developed for 'Thornless Evergreen' (TE) blackberry (Rubus laciniatus Willd.) using thidiazuron (TDZ) and naphthaleneacetic acid. TDZ was superior to benzylaminopurine (BA) in promoting adventitious shoot formation on in vitro-grown TE leaves. TDZ was active at lower concentrations than BA and stimulated adventitious shoot formation from petioles, while BA did not.
