Umbracular characterization of Anthurium andraeanum plants variety 'Lambada', obtained by somatic embryogenesis
Journal Title: Biotecnología Vegetal - Year 2007, Vol 7, Issue 2
Abstract
The objective of this study was to characterize, under greenhouse conditions, a population of 2 000 plants of Anthurium andraeanum variety ‘Lambada’ regenerated from somatic embryos and suckers. Temperatures of 29±2oC, a relative humidity of 80% and a brightness of 60-70% were maintained during the period of culture in greenhouses. Bigger values of the variables evaluated in leaves, flower and plants were shown in plants regenerated from somatic embryos. Longitude of spate in plants coming from suckers was bigger but differences were not significant among the two populations under greenhouse conditions. Plants off-type were not observed in plants obtained from somatic embryos and growth was similar to plants obtainet from suckers.
