Abstract: | Summary Ten cultivars of tomato were screened for their ability to produce shoots and shoot primordia on media containing a range
of 6-benzyladenine (BA) concentrations (0.0–4.0 mgl−1; 0.0–17.7 μM) in combination with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA; 0.0, 0.1, 0.2 mgl−1; 0.0, 0.57, 1.14 μM, respectively). Both genotypes and growth regulator levels showed significant differences at α=0.05. However, their interaction
was not significantly different. A comparison of the mean number of shoots produced six cultivar classes, with UC82, UC97-3,
Castlerock, Red Rock, and Peto86 producing the highest means. There were four cultiver frequency classes, the highest including
cultivars Peto Rock (93.7%), Peto86 (92.3%), and Strain B (90.7%). Growth regulator mean comparisons produced eight classes,
the highest included three different BA/IAA combinations, with media containing 2.0 mgl−1 (8.87 μM) BA and 0.2 mgl−1 (1.14. μM) IAA giving the highest mean and frequency (94.1%). The effect of carbon source was studied using glucose, fructose, maltose,
and sucrose at 3.0% concentration. Three high regenerating genotypes and four media were used in combination with each sugar.
Sugars were significantly different with maltose giving the highest number of shoots (31.6) followed by glucose (20.9). Growth
regulator means, sugar-growth regulator interaction, and cultivar-sugar interaction were significant. A three-way interaction
was nonsignificant. The effect of maltose and sucrose concentration (1.5–9.0%) showed the positive effect of maltose over
sucrose in inducing shoots and in reducing loss rates of shoots on the regeneration media. Maltose at 1.5, 3.0, and 4.5% was
the most effective. Six pH values (4.0–6.5) were used to test their effect on shoot induction in three cultivars (Peto86,
UC97-3 and Castlerock). pH effects and cultivar-pH interaction were not significant. |
