The organization of the virus-tested planting material production for the grape varieties of the local and foreign selection in Kazakhstan

Abstract

The intensification of viniculture involves the organization of the virus-tested planting material production, establishment of the basic parent plantings, certification of the virus-tested planting material with the control of genetic stability of the grape plants propagated in tissue culture. The modified nutritional medium was developed for microclonal propagation of vine in vitro with the content of the free amino acids: glycine and glutamine, increasing propagation factor up to 15% and the number of nodes on microplant up to 27%.

“…In order to reduce the dependence on imported grapes, it is necessary to ensure the progressive development of the grape and wine industry by increasing the area and productivity of grape plantations within Kazakhstan. The strategies employed for these aims are the production and supply of healthy planting material for the grape industry as well as the breeding and introduction of genotypes, including our own varieties, that are resistant/tolerant to pests and diseases and are soil climate analogues [ 6 , 13 , 14 , 16 , 17 ].…”
