Abstract(en) The present study was undertaken at tissue culturelaboratory/Date Palm Research Center-Basrah universityto determine the effect of sucrose at differentconcentrations on some characteristics of date palm plantlets cultivar shuraify propagated by tissue culture, Themain results of this study were: 1-The addition ofsucrose at a concentration of 60 gm/L tothe media led to significant increase of the average heightof plantlets comparison with the other testesconcentrations, plantlet height reached 8.54 cm. 2- The addition of sucrose at a concentration of 45 gm/Lto the media led to significant increase in the rootingpercentage, roots number and the numbers of leaves perplantlet in comparison with the concentrations 30 and 75gm/L, the rooting percentage was 80%, the numbers of roots 4.60 per plantlet and the number of leaves was 3.6per plantlet. 3-The addition of sucrose at a concentration of 60 gm/L tothe media led to significant increase in the average of rootlength comparison with the other tested concentrations, thelength of roots was 6.80 cm. |
