Tóm tắt

The use of apical meristem culture for simultaneous virus elimination and shoot proliferation in sugarcane was assessed. Virus-free plants were propagated from Sugarcane mosaic virus and Sugarcane yellow leaf virus-infected material of the South African commercial cultivar, NCo376. A combination of thermotherapy by hot water treatment of stem sections (nodes) and subsequent germination of vegetative buds at 40°C and optimal meristem size were key factors for the production of virus-free plants. Only meristems of 2 mm in length or of a smaller size (but >0.5 mm) resulted in virus-free sugarcane. Shoot induction and proliferation via direct organogenesis were achieved on Murashige and Skoog nutrient medium supplemented with 0.1 mg l−1 6-benzyladenine and 0.015 mg l−1 6-furfurylaminopurine (KIN). The established protocol provides for the rapid proliferation of virus-free shoots from infected sugarcane plants and approximately 1,300 shoots were propagated from a single 2 mm meristem in 11 weeks. Plants remained virus-free when tested 12 months later.
