Abstract:
Objective For selecting and developing the excellent Bupleurum chinense to mass-produce seedlings and seeds in high quality.Methods B.chinense was picked from eight different areas,such as Lingchuan and Wanrong county in Shanxi Province,Longxi county in Gansu Province,and Shangluo in Shaanxi Province,etc.Rapid propagation was done.The testa of Zhongchai No.1 was scrapped or seeds were soaked in different phytohormones.The effects on germination rates of seeds were compared.ResultsThe optimum medium for bud propagation was B5supplemented with 1.0 mg/L 6-BA and 0.2 mg/L KT.The optimum medium for root induction of test-tube plantlets was 1/2 MS added with 0.1 mg/L NAA,0.5 mg/L IBA,and 1.0 mg/L DSC.The annual propagation coefficient of B.chinense plants was more than 1?108,and the survival rate of transplantation reached to 94%—97%.The phytohormone has little effect on seed germination of B.chinense,but scraping the testa could increase the germination percentage of seeds to 20% and shorten the germinating time greatly.Conclusion By tissue culture of excellent B.chinense,a great deal of plants and seeds could be produced in short time.By scrapping testa in a certain extent,the germination of seeds could be increased.
