Somatic chromosome number doubling of selected potato genotypes using callus culture or the colchicine treatment of shoot nodes in vitro.
1999-02-01
Abstract excerpt
Experiments were carried out to double the somatic cell chromosome numbers of a monoploid and dihaploid of Solanum tuberosum and a genotype of S. circaeifolium subsp. quimense. Colchicine was used in vitro on shoot nodes from which the axillary meristems had been removed. Plants with doubled chromosome numbers were obtained from shoots grown from the tertiary, sub-axillary meristems of all three genotypes. The cal...
