Adventitious stipular bud formation occurred in vitro in many strawberry cultivars during the proliferation phase on medium containing Knop macronutrients, MS micronutrients, vitamins, aminoacids, 2.22 muM BAP, 2.46 muM IBA and 0.29 muM GA(3). As described previously for cultivar Gorella, cultivar Elsanta also showed adventitious stipular buds developing on the abaxial median zone between the stipule tips. To compare the shoots produced from both types of buds, clonal propagation was initiated from stipular buds and from axillary buds on the above mentioned medium. Stipular buds were separated from the meristem-tip initiated plantlet and cultivated in the presence of a lower BAP concentration (1.33 muM) to prevent further stipular bud formation. During proliferation cycles, stipular originated propagules were very easily distinguished by their specific leaf phenotype and light green colour in comparison to plantlets cloned for an axillary bud. Their multiplication rate and cytokinin content were also higher than for axillary buds. No significant difference was observed in auxin content.
