Morphogenetic potential of hypocotyl and cotyledon explants of the three Polish Capsicum annuum L. cultivars (Kujawianka, Passat and Zorza) was studied to develop a reliable plant regeneration protocol. Out of 8 and 15 combinations of growth regulators used in the first and second series respectively, the best medium contained BAP (5 mg.1-1) and IAA (1 mg.l-l). Media containing thidiazuron (TDZ) and IAA proved to be worse than those with BAP and IAA. Additionally, it was indicated that hypocotyl explants placed upside-down developed more adventious buds. 'Passat' was the most responsive variety (approximately 40 % of both types of explants produced buds).In the second part of experiment the aim was to stimulate shoot induction in the conditions most adapted to Agrobacterium trans~brmation. 'Bryza' replaced cv 'Kujawianka' and proved to be better than 'Passat', previously distinguished as a highly responsive cultivar. The experiments confirmed a significant effect of the hypocotyl explant length and induction period on shoot regeneration. Finally, the optimum concentration of carbenicillin and kanamycin was determined.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
