Mohachao Narel is a variant in coconut with sweet and soft endosperm found in Ratnagiri district, Maharashtra, India. Embryos from sweet endosperm type nuts were found to be tiny and elongated and does not not erminate naturally necessitating the embryo rescue technique as a sole method of propagation. Efforts were made to raise tiny slender embryos of Mohachao Narel type, which lack vigour and natural germination, in vitro. Embryos were cultured in Eeuwen's Y3 medium supplemented with 60 gil of sucrose and subsequently transferred to medium containing lower concentration of sucrose. Additives such as thidiazuron and glutamine were included to improve the vigour of the plantlets. Germination percentage varied in the embryos from Mohachao Narel fype, with a highest germination percentage..of 50% recorded in the third collection. The plantlets resulted through in vitro cultured could be successfully planted in the field. Not Available |
