Summary

The project refers to the sphere of biotechnologies and is used for accelerated multiplication of introduced sorts of blueash. It may be used in agriculture and forestry, food and medical industry.

Description

The explants selected from annual shoots of blueash are sterilized during 10 minutes. Sterile explants are put down on culture medium and are incubated under the temperature of 25°С, the photoperiod being 16 hours, the illumination of 4000 lx. Multiplicative explants are bedded in sterile substratum.

Technology type

Technical advantages and economic benefits

The developed clone micro-multiplication method of blueash allows simplifying of the culture media preparation scheme, namely: to exclude the culture medium preparation stage directly for risogenesis. First, the advantage consists in economy of expensive chemical agents, necessary for risogenesis; second, in reduction of working hours spent on wash and bacterial purification of dishes, preparation and autoclaving of mediums, work in laminar boxes; third, in reduction the period of obtaining regenerants ready for transplanting.
