Abstract
In order to develop effective acclimatization methods for Aralia elata plantlets regenerated from somatic embryos, various acclimatizing conditions were compared regarding both survival rate and growth of the plantlets. The plantlets were transplanted into plastic boxes containing artificial soil in the presence of either several levels of MS liquid media, distilled water, 2% sucrose or 0.1% hyponex solution. They were then cultured by spraying of distilled water twice a week and maintained in the normal tissue culture room. Perlite was proved to be better than vermiculite on survival rate and growth of the plantlets. As the size of perlite (larger than 0.2 cm in diameter) increased, both the survival rate and growth of the plantlets improved. Among the various MS liquid media and different aqueous solutions tested, distilled water appeared to result in the best survival rate and growth. MS media were also effective in increasing survival rate and supporting growth when diluted to 1/4 and/or 1/8. The acclimatized plantlets could be transplanted directly onto the nursery bed and grown normally. The above results suggest that plantlets regenerated from somatic embryos of Aralia elata be effectively acclimatized using a plastic box containing perlite with distilled water treatment.
두릅나무의 체세포배 유래 소식물체의 효과적인 순화 방법을 개발하고자 플라스틱 용기를 사용 4가지 인공배양토 및 MS 액체배지 등 7가지 수용액 처리를 통해 활착률 및 생장을 조사하였다. 상토는 perlite가 vermiculite보다 활착 및 생장에 양호하였고, 입자가 클수록 활착률 및 생장이 좋았다. 액체배지는 2차 증류수 처리가 가장 양호하여 96%의 활착률을 나타냈으며, 염류농도를 1/4 및 1/8로 낮춘 MS배지는 각각 92%의 활착률을 보인 반면 기본배지 및 1/2 MS배지는 활착률이 저조하였다. 한편 0.1% hyponex와 2% sucrose 처리는 84% 및 76%의 활착률을 각각 나타냈다. 결론적으로 두릅나무의 체세포배 유래 소식물체의 순화는 입자가 큰 perlite를 사용하고 증류수 처리 혹은 염류 농도를 낮춘 MS배지 처리로 효과적인 순화가 가능함을 보여주었다.
