Micro-propagation of Colocasia esculenta (cv. Bolosso I) from corm and sprout tip explants

Abstract: Taro (Colocasia esculenta L.) is a perennial, aquatic and semi-aquatic species, member of the family Araceae grown for its edible tuberous root. The application of conventional propagation techniques for taro could not produce high demand and quality planting materials due to its low productive capacity and diseases transmission. Therefore, this study was carried out to develop micro-propagation protocol for Colocasia esculenta (cv. Bolosso I) from corm and sprout tip explants. Explants were collected from Are… Show more

“…Based on the findings of Adil et al (2019), calli were elicited by pretreatment of dark conditions relative to other light intensities. The present study outcomes align with the results of Bogale (2018), where the highest growth rate was observed under a dark environment and then exposure to normal light in Colocasia esculenta cultures. The currently published report also justified the importance of pretreatment of dark conditions and noticed that in initially exposed olive calli for 1 week in the dark, and then the calli samples were subjected to normal light and feasible production (Mohammad et al, 2019).…”

“…In fact, the seedlings reach the one-leaf stage after two weeks for the terminal bud and four weeks for the axillary buds. Also, Bogale [42] found that mean number of shoots and mean length of shoot from corm apical shoot were higher than from sprout tip (newly sprouted axillary shoot). These differences might be due to higher phytohormone concentrations in the vegetative organs resulting from buds of the top of the tuber.…”

“…Talas atau keladi (Colocasia esculenta L.) berasal dari Asia Selatan dan Asia Tenggara. Umbi talas terdiri dari bermacam-macam istilah, contohnya Jawa Barat disebut Taleus dan di Jawa Tengah disebut Keladi (Bogale, 2018). Talas memiliki sejumlah kelebihan, antara lain patinya yang mudah dicerna (Eze and Nwovia, 2016) dan dapat dikonsumsi oleh orang yang mempunyai alergi terhadap biji-bijian (Wasilah et al, 2019) sehingga sangat cocok dikonsumsi anak kecil dan bayi (Chair, 2016).…”
