Abstract
A simple micropropagation system was developed for Ribes magellanicum. Significant differences between strength of Murashige and Skoog medium macronutrient salts and 6-benzylaminepurine (BA) levels were observed on total number of new axillary shoots, shoot length and total number of leaves. After 3 weeks in culture, a maximum of four new axillary shoots per original explant were obtained in medium which contained half-strength macronutrient salts plus 0.5 mg l −1 BA. After subculture on the same macronutrients without indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) rooting percentages were > 95%. Rooted shoots were then successfully acclimatized to field conditions.
