Regenerated shoots, rooted or not, obtained by micropropagation were transplanted into pots with a substratum containing crude arbuscolar mycorrhizal (AM) inoculum and compared with untreated plants to ascertain whether an effective mycorrhizal symbiosis could be obtained by inoculation with appropriate AM fungi early on during a post vitro weaning stage to improving the rooting rate and survival at outplanting The results show mycorrhizal infection that facilitates the adaptation to mist greenhouse conditions markedly. Moreover the presence of the inoculated fungus influences the root production in unrooted microplants, allowing their survival. Growth differences between mycorrhizal and control plants were very large, confirming the importance of mycorrhizal inoculation for micropropagated plants.

Abstract
Regenerated shoots, rooted or not, obtained by micropropagation were transplanted into pots with a substratum containing crude arbuscolar mycorrhizal (AM) inoculum and compared with untreated plants to ascertain whether an effective mycorrhizal symbiosis could be obtained by inoculation with appropriate AM fungi early on during a post vitro weaning stage to improving the rooting rate and survival at outplanting The results show mycorrhizal infection that facilitates the adaptation to mist greenhouse conditions markedly. Moreover the presence of the inoculated fungus influences the root production in unrooted microplants, allowing their survival. Growth differences between mycorrhizal and control plants were very large, confirming the importance of mycorrhizal inoculation for micropropagated plants.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
