Establishment of a high efficient method for chromosome doubling and exploration of cold-resistant resources in potato

In this work, different treatment combinations including colchicine concentrations and treatment methods as well as different time points was used to investigate the survival rate and chromosome doubling efficiency of potato tissue culture plantlets. The potato chromosome doubling by using colchicine had been successfully optimized. The potato plantlet stems treated with 0.1% colchicine for three days shaking at 120 r min^-1 showed the highest doubling efficiency due to its better contact to the colchicine solution. Compared with other potato chromosome doubling techniques, this method has much higher chromosome doubling rate, shorter time treatment and easier to operate, so that it could provide a higher efficient method for potato ploidy operation. In the meantime, compared with the diploid, the tetraploid interspecific hybrids showed differences in the morphological characteristic, which had higher plants, thicker stem, bigger petals and pollen grain. In addition, no significant difference was found between diploid and tetraploid interspecific hybrids in terms of cold resistance, but both significantly enhanced cold resistance compared with the common potato cultivar. Taken together, the doubled interspecific hybrids could sever for improving cold resistance of potato cultivars.
