Kırgızistan Orijinli Bazı Biber Genotiplerinin Anter Kültürü Etkinliklerinin Belirlenmesi

Abstract

Among the Central Asian countries, Kyrgyzstan is one of the important countries in terms of the rich diversity of biological resources. Among this rich diversity, vegetable and fruit genetic resources have an important place. Pepper has an important place among economically important products in Kyrgyzstan, as in countries similar to Kyrgyzstan's ecology. It is important to include genetic resources such as pepper in breeding programs in Kyrgyzstan, as in our country. Knowing the double haploid efficiency of genetic resources is advantageous in breeding programs. In this study, it was aimed to determine the anther culture efficiency of pepper genotypes originating from Kyrgyzstan. In the study, the anther culture efficiency of a total of 27 pepper genotypes, 25 from Kyrgyzstan and 2 capia type genetic materials with known anther culture efficiency as controls, was determined. According to the findings, a total of 1336 buds were cultured and 365 embryos were obtained, while 264 of these embryos turned into healthy plants. The highest plant transformation was determined in genotype BY-25. While no plants were obtained in 7 pepper genotypes, healthy plants were obtained in only 20 genotypes. While the embryo rate per bud was 14%, the conversion rate to plant per bud was determined as 15.6. The results showed that there was variation in terms of anther culture efficiency in pepper genotypes originating from Kyrgyzstan, as in other genotypes.
