In vitro culture and macropropagation as way of sustainability of forest species propagation
2013
Felipe Jiménez-Terry | Daniel Agramonte
Forest species are economically important crops. In order to it propagation different ways are used. Those are relating to the species, resources and technologies available. This work was performed with the aim to summarize different propagation methods used in forest species of great importance in Cuba. As a specific aspect, the feasibility of integrating the in vitro culture and macropropagation as a way to ensure the sustainability of the propagation of these species was analyzed. Examples using cut plant in growing house to achieve plants quality is described. This alternative approach allows designing a sustainable strategy in the production of quality seeds of valuable plant materials. Key words: nodal segment, organogenesis, somatic embryogenesis
