Effect of Triacontanol on Plant Cell Cultures in Vitro

Abstract: Triacontanol ICH.(CH2)2sCH2OHI increased growth in vitro of cell cultures of haploid tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum). The fresh weight of cell cultures of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum), potato (Solanum tuberosum), bean (Phaseolus vulgaris), and barley (Hordeum vulgare x H. jubatum) was also increased. The increase in growth of tobacco callus seems to have been due to an increase in cell number. Another long chain alcohol, octocosanol ICH(CH2)2fiCH2OHI, did not increase the growth of tobacco cell cultures.

“…Naeem et al (2012) also reported that triacontanol possible role in regulating growth and metabolism of plants lies in the regulation of gene expression. According to Hangarter and Ries (1978) triacontanol potentially increases growth due to the increase in the number of cells in the plant. The activated genes in gene expression are due to the provision of triacontanol, the potential possibility to control the amount of cells from plant organs and organ size of the overall development of shoots and roots of the cacao seedlings.…”

“…The TRIA, applied at 10 mg L Á1 , increased the dry weight and leaf area of rice plants in nutrient cultures . Similarly, Hangarter et al (1978) found that TRIA, isolated from alfalfa or the one synthesized artificially (Analabs), were active at extremely low concentrations (23 nM). TRIA also promoted growth of tobacco callus at concentrations as low as 0.01 mg per Petri dish when applied to either roots or shoots .…”
