Abstract

In vitro culture of Chenopodium murale L. (ecotype 197) green and herbicide SAN 9789 - treated white plants was established and the effects of benzylaminopurine (BAP), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellic acid (GA3) on growth and flowering were tested. Green plants did not flower on glucose free media, while 17 % of plants flowered on 5 % glucose-containing medium. SAN 9789 (10−5 M) inhibited growth and flowering. BAP and IAA (0.1 – 5 mg dm−3) also inhibited growth and flowering of green and white plants. GA3 (10 mg dm−3) stimulated leaf development in green plants, but had no significant effect on white plants, and stimulated flowering of green (41 %) and white (33 %) plants.
