In Vitro Germination and Seedling Development of An Endemic Medicinal Plant Hypericum adenotrichum Spach

Abstract

In this study, it has been aimed to describe an appropriate procedure for in vitro seed germination and seedling development of H. adenotrichum which is an endemic plant under in vitro conditions. It has been determined that stratification, light, dark, different temperature and different nitruent media have effects on seed germination. The highest germination value has been held when sterilized seeds were incubated in ¼ MS/Galzy nitruent medium under 16/8 photoperiod and 18 º C conditions after stratification at 4ºC for 2 months. The seeds having emerged radicles were transferred different in vitro media (22 º C and 16/8 photoperiod) on mainly 7th days of incubation. ¼ MS/Galzy medium was found to be the most suitable media for seedling development because it has the highest number of shoots per seedling, mean number of lateral roots, mean length of shoots and number of leaves per shoots.
