Influence of the Container Size on the Rate of Prunus avium Shoot Multiplication

Branka Pevalek-Kozlina ; Hrvatska

Abstract

Experiments were carried out to investigate the growth response of wild cherry shoots inoculated into two container types (test tubes, 30 X 160 mm and Erlenmeyer flasks, 100 ml), possessing identical quality and quantity of medium (mod. WPM medium supplemented with BA, IBA and GA3) per shoot, the same opening size, glass and closure type and external environment, but different air volume and surface area. The shoot multiplication of all the six genotypes tested was significantly higher (P < 0.01) in Erlenmeyer flasks in comparison with test tubes.
