Abstract: | Murashige and Skoog medium (MS), woody plant medium (WPM), and a mixture of equal parts of MS and WPM (MW) were compared for in vitro shoot proliferation and rooting of four highbush blueberry (Vaccinium spp.) cultivars. During the multiplication stage, the shoots on WPM showed worse growth than the other shoots. The MW produced the best shoot growth. The shoots on MS grew well but tended toward hyperhydricity in the multiplication stage, especially in the case of ‘Bluecrop’ shoots. Rooting was worst in the shoots multiplied on WPM, while the best rooting percentage of ‘Bluecrop’ shoots was obtained on MS, and that of ‘O’Neal’ on MW. The rooted shoots developed a good root system and were easily acclimatized after potting. |
