“…Furthermore, the olfactive perception of the peculiar turmeric flavour was perceived after rhizome cutting. These results confirmed that an increase in sucrose concentration (6%) and a short-day photoperiod were necessary conditions for a good development of in vitro turmeric rhizomes [22,34]. Moreover the addition of charcoal represents a good tool for the establishment of the characteristic colour of these organs.…”

“…In vitro propagation method for selecting organs with quantified curcuminoids Natural Product Communications Vol. 7 (8) 2012 1039 In the literature turmeric microrhizomes were obtained in MS medium with a high sucrose concentration and a short photoperiod [33][34]. In this work the induction of microrhizomes was achieved by using the proposed short photoperiod to facilitate the storage phase of roots, and introducing the use of two different media, with a reduced agar percentage (0.5%) to facilitate microrhizome expansion.…”

“…BAP alone or in combination with other growth regulators were found to have induced multiple shoots (Parthasarathy and Sasikumar, 2006). Hashemy et al, (2009) reported Kinetin at the concentration of 0.2 mg/L in the presence of 2 mg/L of NAA as the most favorable for the formation of shoots in Curcuma longa. The results obtained by Srirat et al, (2008) for the in vitro shoots propagation of Curcuma longa using rhizome buds as explants showed MS medium containing 60 g/L of sucrose and 5 mg/L of thidiazuron (TDZ) to have induced shoots.…”

“…Besides, a large amount of edible part (rhizome) is also stored for stock purpose for the next season planting, thereby-making germplasm maintenance by annual planting, an expensive and labor-intensive activity for the marginal farmers (Jala, 2013;Behera et al, 2010). Maximum multiplication achievable annually is only 5-fold (Hashemy, 2009). Shirgurkar et al, (2011) indicated the need for turmeric plant rapid multiplication technique.…”

“…Previously, only 70-75% survival rate of acclimatized turmeric plantlets has been reported, and poorly acclimatized plantlets are not adapted to field conditions (only 45-50% survival rate, Perić et al 2012). Alternatively, in vitro microrhizome induction in turmeric plants has been reported as one of the most important techniques to improve the survival rate in acclimatized greenhouse conditions (Hashemy et al 2009) but it is low frequency, leading to consume the long-period for microrhizome production (>18 months). In the present study, we aimed to produce the healthy plantlets of two turmeric cultivars, 'PB009' and 'ST018,' using iso-osmotic adjustment in the culture medium by several sugar types before transplanting into soil and validating the physiological adaptations, biochemical changes (including curcuminoids in minirhizome), and growth characteristics.…”
