“…Based on the results obtained, the following advantages are confirmed when implementing TIS compared to TS: 1) Automatization of its processes (Preil, 2005;Ziv, 2005), which allows providing more uniform growing conditions during the micropropagation process (Adelberg, 2007); 2) greater productive efficiency (Delfino et al, 2020); 3) lower loss caused by manipulation (Quiala et al, 2012;Cruzat, 2009;Pérez et al, 1998); 4) reduction between 50% and 60% in production costs per plant (Winkelman et al, 2006), as consequence of the mechanization of some of the micropropagation stages (Castillo et al, 2020); and 5) lower price in TIS compared to the imported varieties.…”

“…The TS allows a numerous production of plants; however, in the multiplication phase, due to the use of specialized labor and gelling agents such as microbiology growth culture medium (agar), the costs increase significantly (Pérez et al, 1998;Adelberg et al, 2007). TIS is a viable alternative in comparison to the TS, because of high micropropagation rate and by the substitution of the gelling agent by a programmed immersion system.…”

Objective: to estimate the production price of strawberry “mother” plant of the CP-Jacona variety in both TIS and TS, and to compare these prices with the price of the imported “mother” plant. Design/Methodology/Approach: micropropagation methods have been used as an effective means for the mass production of pathogen-free plants, in small spaces and relatively short periods of time. In particular, in vitro Temporary Immersion Systems (TIS) applied to the production of strawberry “mother” plants have been shown to offer technological and quantitative benefits, as well as a higher proliferation rate, compared to the in vitro Traditional System (TS). Despite the benefits of TIS, these systems have not been evaluated in terms of the price at which the “mother” plant can be produced and whether it is a profitable option to supply strawberry producers. The traditional method of financial analysis was applied. Results: the price of the CP-Jacona variety plant obtained from the third production period through TIS was lower than the price of the imported Festival or Camarosa varieties. Findings/Conclusions: both the high production rate and the low rate of loss from handling in TIS were fundamental aspects to obtain lower prices than those of imported varieties.
