Abstract

The objective of the present work was to study the composition of different culture medium, BAP concentration and explants types on in vitro multiplication of the rootstock ‘GxN-9’, like the influence of this factors in the vitrification. Basal explants cultivated in QL and WPM medium had the better results regarding shooting percentage (80%). The shoot number per explants was also higher with basal explants when cultivating in QL medium (3 shoot a explant). The medium QL and WPM allowed better growth performance of formed shoots to both explants types. Nevertheless, basal explants cultivated in QL medium had 55% of vitrification, whereas explants from WPM medium did not show this abnormality. The lower level of salt concentration with 0.5 mg dm-3 BAP reduced vitrification, promoting an increase in shoot growth without affecting formation rates.
