Abstract: | A prerequisite for most transformation systems is an efficient and reliable method to regenerate phenotypically normal plants. Immature embryos or cotyledons were cultured at three developmental stages (stage 1, 2 and 3, PF=3, 30–60, and 100, respectively) from two unrelated apricot genotypes, Zard and NJA82 . Explants were cultured on MS media supplemented with either BA or TDZ at four concentrations (0, 0.5, 5.0 or 20 M) and 2,4-D at 0 or 1 M. Stage 1 embryos cultured on MS medium without growth regulators formed embryoid-like structures. Shoot primordia induction was greatest with stage 2 cotyledons on media containing 5–20 M TDZ and 1 M 2,4-D, although shoot morphology was abnormal, especially with the highest level of TDZ. In another factorial experiment, stage 2 cotyledons were cultured on media containing TDZ (0, 5, 7.5, 10, 15 or 20 M) in combination with either no auxin, 1 M 2,4-D, 1 M IBA, or 5 MIBA. Regeneration percentages of 80% or more were observed on media containing 1–5 M IBA and 5–10 M TDZ. The medium containing 5 M IBA and no TDZ exhibited the highest frequency of phenotypically normal plantlet regeneration.Abbreviations BA 6-benzylaminopurine - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - 2,4-D 2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - 2iP 2-isopentenyladenine - MS Murashige and Skoog basal medium - NAA 1-naphthaleneacetic acid - PF percent fill [(embryo length/seed length) × 100] - TDZ thidiazuron [N-phenyl-N(1,2,3,-thidiazol-5-yl)-urea] - WPM McCown's woody plant medium |
