Abstract

Objective: The optimal in vitro culture conditions for the regeneration of Fritillaria cirrhosa were screened.

Methods: Through the in vitro culture of the flowering stage Fritillaria cirrhosa, the effect of illumination, culture temperature, hormone combination and the amount of ribavirin on the regeneration of Fritillaria cirrhosa were studied.

Results and conclusion: The explant browning level could be apparently reduced if the bulb were cultured under the ray after exposure to proper low-temperature. The optimal temperature for the regeneration of bulb is (20 +/- 2) degrees C. The hormone has obvious promotional effect on the regeneration of bulb, and the best combination is 6-BA 2.0 mg/L plus NAA 0.2 mg/L Concentration of 10 mg/L of ribavirin is best for the regeneration of bulb.
