| Description |
Effect of growth retardants (paclobutrazol or ancymidol)
was studied in Lilium plantlets growing in liquid
culture. A significant increase in leaf chlorophyll, epicuticular
wax, plant dry weight and bulb starch contents were
found in plantlets treated with growth retardants. A similar
increase in the number of leaves, roots and bulbs was
also noted. However, total leaf area and the fresh weight
increased only marginally. These features resulted in robust
plantlets that showed significantly improved ex vitro
survival. Based on these features, a comprehensive index
(CI) was calculated as a measure of quality of the
plantlets, and it correlated well with their ex vitro survival.
Treatment of plantlets with 3.4 μM paclobutrazol
was found to be the best and its carry over effects were also
minimal.
