Description |
Vanilla is a cross pollinated crop and hence good amount of variability can be expected among the seedling progenies. In the present study vanilla seeds were cultured on Murashige & Skoog medium supplemented with cytokinins and auxins for germination, development and subsequent multiplication of plantlets in the same medium. Individual shoots produced multiple shoots and conversion of root meristem into shoots was also induced in MS medium supplemented with BAP (l mgP) and IBA (0.5 mgJ-l). PlanUets could be transferred to soil with 80% success. Studies on various morphological parameters like leaf size, internodal length and growth rate and isozyme analysis of leaf tissue by Native PAGE, indicated genetic variability among the progenies. |
