Abstract

We studied the effect of β-indoleacetic acid (IAA), α-naphthylacetic acid (NAA), kinetin (K), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) and gibberellic acid (GA3) on development of isolated meristems of four potato cultivars (subsp. tuberosum). GA3 had a stimulating effect on in vitro meristem growth. The differences among the cultivars are presented. K+IAA+GA3 induced formation of multiple shoots. We describe a method of continual plant multiplication under in vitro conditions and propose the produce for maintenance, multiplication and virus eradication of potato germplasm and cultivars.
