Construction of Highly-efficient Direct Regeneration System of Different Chrysanthemum Species

Leaves and stems of 9 chrysanthemum species were taken as explants and inoculated to 6 differential media and root media to research effects of hor- mone combination and explants on chrysanthemum species. The results indicated that stem of 9 chrysanthemum species and leaf of 6 chrysanthemum species all showed higher regeneration capacity, with regeneration rate in 84%-100% and re- generation coefficient at 2.3-9.4. However, none adventitious buds were found differ- entiated from leaves of ＂28＂ and ＂5-17＂, and leaf regeneration capacity of ＂11＂ was lower, either. Most chrysanthemum species proved higher in stem regeneration ca- pacity, instead of leaf. Therefore, chrysanthemum species can be applied for rapid reproduction and genetic engineering.
