Abstract

Proliferation of axillary shoots from nodal segments of saucer magnolia (Magnolia x soulangiana Soul.-Bod.) was achieved on modified Standardi and Catalano (S medium) and Lloyd and McCown (WPM) media containing 1.33 µmol·dm−3 BA and 0.54 µmol·dm−3 NAA. The greatest number of axillary shoots was produced on S-medium with full strength macronutrients. Statistically significant were the differences in biomass of axillary shoots cultured in vessels sealed with plastic closures. Rooting of the shoots was achieved on half strength S medium supplemented with 4.9, 9.8, 14.7 and 19.6 µmol·dm−3 IBA. Rooted plantlets were able to resume independent growth after a short period of acclimatization.
