Abstract: | This preliminary research reports results on the influence of light quality on anther culture of Citrus clementina Hort. ex Tan., cultivar Nules. After one month of cultivation in darkness, four light qualities were tested: White, Red, Far-Red and Blue. Continuous Darkness and White light under photoperiod of 16 hrs were used as a control conditions. Gametic embryoids and embryogenic callus were obtained only under photoperiodic conditions of White light, suggesting that the alternation of light and dark can be used for the process of gametic embryogenesis in Citrus. |
