Clonal propagation and cryogenic storage of the medicinal plant Stevia rebaudiana

Abstract: Successful clonal propagation of Stevia rebaudiana was achieved using microshoots as a primary step for in vitro conservation. Maximum proliferation was obtained on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1.5 mg L -1 benzyl amino purine and 0.2 mg L -1 indole-3-butyric-acid (IBA). Auxin increased rooting percentage of shoots at concentration of 0.4 mg L -1 IBA, indole-3-acetic-acid or naphthalene acetic acid and no rooting occurred without plant growth regulator. A survival of 90% was achieved when r… Show more

“…BAP promoted multiplication of Vitis vinifera and the rate of multiplication with BAP at 0.8 mg/L B (Shatnawi et al, 2011a). Similar results were obtained by Shatnawi et al (2011b) on Setivia rebuandia. BAP had inhibitory effect on shoot elongation (Tables 1 and 2).…”

“…In vitro conservation is based on conditions which permit minimal rates of growth, generally reduces the culture temperature or uses growth retardant (Marin and Duran-Vila, 1991;Orlikowska, 1992;Shibli et al, 1999;Sheyab et al, 2010;Shatnawi et al, 2011b). Sucrose functions as both a carbon/energy source and as an osmotic agent (Brown et al, 1979;Bonnier and Van Tuyl, 1997).…”

“…The seeds of Stevia show a very less vigour and low germination percentage [8]. Propagation by seeds does not allow the production of homogeneous populations, resulting in great variability of important features like sweetening levels and composition [9][10][11]. Vegetative propagation is too slow and limited by the lower number of individuals that can be obtained simultaneously from a single plant due to pathogen accumulation in the tissues [12][13][14].…”
