Radicazione ed incapsulamento di talee vitro-derivate di citrange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb. X Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf.] Carrizo.

Studio sull’incapsulamento di microtalee vitro-derivate di gelso.

Preliminary Results on Biotization of Encapsulated Vitro-Derived Propagules of Carrizo Citrange [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osb. × Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf].

The encapsulation technology represents a new tool to integrate micropropagation into the nursery activity. It allows combining the advantages of zygotic or gamic seeds with those of micropropagation. The synthetic or artificial seeds have been defined as “artificially encapsulated somatic embryos, shoots or other tissues which can be used for sowing under in vitro or ex vitro conditions”. This will be a powerful propagation tool in the nurseryman hands, if the levels of the synthetic seeds conversion can be increased also in the nurseries, without the asepsis of in vitro laboratories and with the presence of many parasitic microorganisms, like bacteria and fungi, responsible for contaminat…
