Effects of Sucrose on Tuberous Root Formation and Saccharide Accumulation in Manihot esculenta Crantz In Vitro
Year: 2014
Type: article
Abstract: The induction of tuberous roots of cassava in vitro is functional in MS medium containing 0.54 mM NAA, 0.44 mM BA and 3%-7% sucrose; meanwhile, the saccharide accumulation in the induced tuberous roots was increased with the sucrose content addition from 3%-7% in the inducible medium. Thus, the sucrose is an important factor for tuberous root induction in Cassava in vitro. The experimental results showed that the appropriate concentration of sucrose played a key role on the tuberous root induction in Cassava in vitro.
