In vitro propagation of the bamboo (Bambusa tulda Roxb.) through shoot proliferation

Abstract: An efficient protocol has been developed for the in vitro propagation of Bambusa tulda through shoot proliferation. Shoots from 3-week-old aseptically grown seedlings were used to initiate cultures. Multiple shoots were obtained on liquid Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (8×10(-6)M) and kinetin (4×10(-6)M). Continuous shoot proliferation at a rate of 4-5 fold every three weeks was achieved through forced axillary branching. More than 90% of the shoots could be rooted on a m… Show more

“…Arya and Sharma, (1998);Anand et al, (2013) and Nayak et al, (2010) investigated that the cytokinins (BAP and Kn) were effective in direct shoot induction of the axillary buds of B. bambos as well as Devi andSharma, (2009) in Arundinaria callosa, andChaudhary et al, (2004) in D. strictus. BAP has also been found to be essential for direct shoot induction in bamboo (Nadgir et al, 1984;Banik, 1987 andSaxena, 1990). In the present study, directly induced shoots were excised from nodal segments after 4 weeks of growth on initiation medium and cultured on MS gelled medium supplemented with different concentrations of BAP alone or in combination with TDZ, Kn and NAA.…”

“…There are some reports that addition of auxins (IAA or NAA) has either no effect on multiplication or decreased the multiplication of bamboo (Saxena, 1990;Das and Rout, 1991;Prutpongse and Gavinlertvatana, 1992).…”

“…Hardened and acclimatized in vitro plantlets of D. falcatum in pots in polyhouse (Figure 1(f), Figure 1(g) [39]. Use of vermiculite or soilrite like inert substance for hardening has been reported by many workers in bamboos [19] [37]. Vermiculite is an inert material and absorbs large quantity of water.…”

“…Tissue culture is one essential technique to micropropagate regenerated plant tissues and it is also a pre-requisite for genetic improvement through the use of different transformation strategies. At present, reports dealing with bamboo tissue culture are described mainly for the genus Bambusa (Kalia et al 2004;Lin et al 2003Lin et al , 2004Saxena 1990) and Dendrocalamus (Ramanayake et al 2001;Saxena and Dhawan 1999;Singh et al 2003;Sood et al 2002). Little information is available for the genus Phyllostachys.…”
