The flower spikes of tuberose (Polian/hes tuberosa L.), emerging to 15-20 cm long, were harvested, and then soaked in 1.0 and 1.5 mM sodil!m azide for 60、90 and 120 minutes. Young florets, 0.2-0.5 cm in length, were excised as explants and cultured on a modified MS medium for 5 weeks. The survial rate of floret explants treated with 1.0、1.5mM and 2.0mM sodium azide for 90 minutes were 48.2%、46.8% and 8.6% respectively. However, all floret explants treated with 1.0 and 1.5mM sodium for 120 minutes showed browning and/or etiolated. Flower spikes of tuberose were soaked in 1.0 and l .5mM sodium azide for 90 minutes. Young florets were then removed as explants and cultured on medium containing 0.1 mg/I NAA and 6.8 mg/I BA for inducing adventitious buds. In vitro regenerated plantlets were transferred to field soil. M 1 plants were found below 10% mutation rate. Mutant plants showed a great deal of variations in flower color, flower shape and floret number per flower spike. Tuberose mutation breeding by sodium ande presented in this study makes it possible to apply vegetative propagated crops for mutation breeding model. |
