Effects of some gelling agents and their concentrations on conversion of oil palm polyembryoids into plantlets

Abstract: Oil palm, a tropical plant with an economic life of 20-25 years, is on high demand since its oil (palm oil) is now considered to be the world's most consumed oil. Despite the high potential for the use of clonal materials, the tissue culture technique for oil palm is difficult and laborious. One of the key steps of the process is the conversion of polyembroids into plantlets. Gelling agent has been implicated to play a role in ensuring the conversion of oil palm polyembryoids into complete plantlets. In the pr… Show more

“…Studies were also extended to investigate a wide range of plant species and crops in an attempt to screen the best ingredients to be used in explants and medium components. Our study has also produced convincing results consistent with those obtained with bananas (Kacar et al 2010), wheat (Malik et al 2017), kiwi (Mardiana et al 2018), oil and date palms (Al-Mayahi and Ali 2021; Palanyandy et al 2020), and rice (Gehad M. Mohamed et al 2021;Repalli et al 2019).…”

“…As a gelling agent, gellan gum has a lower mineral content, fewer impurities of organic substances [ 116 , 117 ], better water availability [ 118 ], and better facilitates the diffusion of inhibitive molecules such as phenols [ 119 ], compared to agar. Thus, it has advantageous ability to stimulate the growth and development of in vitro plants during micropropagation and microtuberization [ 120 ], and stimulate shoot multiplication [ 121 ], germination [ 122 ], conversion of polyembryoids into plantlets [ 123 ], callus induction and roots development [ 115 ]. A possible reason for agar’s inferiority compared to gellan gum lies in the immobilization of up to 30% MS medium salts in the gel [ 124 ].…”
