Abstract: | Micropropagated Choisya, Daphne, Delphinium, Hemerocallis, Hosta, Iris and Photinia were found to adjust the pH of Murashige and Skoog's plant tissue culture medium (initial pH 5.6 or 3.5) to different values depending on the species. When plant growth and rooting rates were determined after plants had been grown on media initially adjusted or buffered to values between 2.6 and 5.7 the different plant species were also found to have distinct pH requirements for optimal growth and/or rooting rates.Abbreviations MS Murashige & Skoog's (1962) medium - MS19 MS with additionally 10 g l–1 sucrose - 80 mg l–1 adenine sulphate and 130.9 mg l–1 NaH2PO4 - BA 6-benzyladenine - NAA 1-naphthyl-acetic acid - IBA 3-indole-butyric acid - IAA 3-indole-acetic acid - 2iP N6(2-isopentyl) adenine |
