Abstract:

To rapid propagate high-quality Reynoutria japonica Houtt. seedlings and optimize a rapid propagation system of Reynoutria japonica Houtt. in vitro tissue, the effects of different disinfection times on the stem segments of Reynoutria japonica Houtt. and different hormone concentrations in the culture medium on the proliferation induction and adventitious bud rooting of the stem segments of Reynoutria japonica Houtt. were investigated. The results showed that the best sterilization method for the stem segment with axillary buds of Reynoutria japonica Houtt. was 75% alcohol 15 s+(0.1% Tween-20+2% sodium hypochlorite) for 12 min, and the acquisition rate of sterile explants reached 90.89%. The optimal medium for inducing axillary bud sprouting in stem segments was MS+30 g·L-1 sucrose+7 g·L-1 agar+1.5 mg·L-1 kinetin+0.2 mg·L-1 naphthalene acetic acid, with a proliferation rate of 113.3%. The optimal medium for rooting culture of adventitious buds was 1/2 MS+30 g·L-1 sucrose+5.5 g·L-1 agar+3 mg·L-1 green plant growth regulator (GGR6). The rooting rate could reach 70.37% and adventitious roots could be differentiated after about 3 days, and complete plants could be obtained after about 15 days. The survival rate of transplanted tissue cultured seedlings after rooting reached 100%. This study optimized a rapid culture system for stem segments of Reynoutria japonica Houtt., with a sterile explant acquisition rate, proliferation rate, and transplant survival rate of over 90%. Moreover, the rooting time is fast, which can significantly shorten the transplant time and reduce reproduction costs.

Key words: Reynoutria japonica Houtt., rapid propagation in vitro, green plant growth regulator
