Abstract | Using in vitro leaves of Zizyphus jujuba ‘ Kongfusucui’plantlet as explants, effects of culture method, phytohormone proportion and culture time on induction rate of adventitious shoot from leaves and effects of sucrose concentrations in rooting media on rooting of adventitious shoot were studied. The results show that induction rate of adventitious shoot by two-step culture method (firstly cultured on medium Ⅰfor four weeks then cultured on medium Ⅱfor three weeks) is significantly higher than that by one-step culture method (cultured continuously on medium Ⅰfor seven weeks). Phytohormone proportion in medium Ⅰhas an obviously influence on induction rate of adventitious shoot, which gradually increases with increasing of TDZ concentration in medium Ⅰ. And adding 1. 0 mg·L-1 TDZ in medium Ⅰleads to induction rate with above 80%. With culture time prolonging (cultured for 1, 2, 3 or 4 weeks on medium Ⅰ,respectively), induction rate increases gradually. Sucrose concentration has a significant effect on rooting of adventitious shoot, sucrose with higher concentration (30 g·L-1 ) is beneficial to rooting. According to induction rate and growth status of adventitious shoot, it is determined that optimal culture method of adventitious shoot induction from Z. jujube ‘Kongfusucui’leaves is two-step culture method, that is, leaves firstly cultured on WPM medium containing 1. 0 mg·L-1 TDZ and 0. 5 mg·L-1 IAA for four weeks, and then cultured on WPM medium containing 0. 5 mg·L-1 IAA and 1. 0 mg·L-1 GA3 till adventitious shoot produced. |
