Abstract:Prunus avium L. is the rarest forest fruit tree in northwestern Tunisia, with strong socio-economic, agronomic, and commercial potential. The aim of this study was to provide more information about the domestication of this species by using an inexpensive in vitro culture technique for micropropagation of meristems. The plant extract used in this study was Rubus fruticosus. The results showed that the best concentration of the extract of R. fruticosus applied for the budding of meristematic microcuttings was 1… Show more
