Methodological recommendations for lighting modes for growing rootstocks and varieties of domestic plum at the stages of micro propagation, in vitro rooting and ex vitro adaptation determine the usage of lamps with different light spectra, allowing to obtain more higher results of micro clonal propagation, including: the height of regenerated plants and the number of leaves, the propagation ratio; development of the root system; growth and physiological state at the stage of ex vitro adaptation.
The research was carried out in 2019–2020 in the laboratory of the fruit-growing department of RUЕ “Brest regional
agricultural experimental station of the National Academy of Science of Belarus”. The objects of research were microplants
of in vitro zoned rootstocks VPK-1, Saint Julien GF 655/2 and microplants of domestic plum varieties Vengerka Belorusskaya,
Venera, Empress. Studies have shown that at the stage of proliferation a high propagation coefficient was achieved at the
second passage of Empress variety, when illuminated by the spectrum “red, blue, infrared, ultraviolet” (4.7±1.17) and
in “control” (4.3±0.32). On fourth passage of cultivation when illuminated by the spectrum “red, blue, infrared, ultraviolet”
Empress’s variety propagation coefficient is 5.4±0.17.
When illuminated by the spectrum “red, blue, infrared, ultraviolet” the average shoot length was the longest for the
Vengerka Belorusskaya variety (4.5±0.68 сm), by “full spectrum” was the best variant for the Venera variety (3.3±0.34 cm).
When evaluating the number of leaves on the shoot, the advantage of the “full spectrum” lamp for the Vengerka Belorusskaya variety (16.4±0.68 pcs) is noted.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
