摘要
Cotyledon explants of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cvs 'Santa Clara', 'Firme' mutant, 'IPA-5' and 'IPA-6') were excised from 8- to 10-day-old in vitro-grown seedlings. Four different shoot induction media supplemented with timentin (300 mg l(-1)) were screened. When cotyledon explants were cultured on MS-based medium with 1.0 mg l(-1) zeatin plus 0.1 mg l(-1) IAA and supplemented with timentin, higher regeneration frequencies and a greater number of elongated shoots were obtained. It was observed that timentin caused an increase in the morphogenesis of in vitro cotyledon explants of tomato cultivars. In two of three cultivars tested, rooting of shoots was positively influenced, both in the presence and absence of timentin in the rooting medium, among shoots regenerated from explants derived from timentin-supplemented medium. The results confirm those of a previous investigation on the beneficial effects of this class of antibiotics on tomato regeneration and, consequently, its reliability for use in the transformation of this species.
