Influence of an oligogalacturonide on the banana (Musa spp.) vitroplant acclimatization of �??FHIA-18�?? (AAAB) clone

Abstract
way of Musaceas; therefore, the application of different
biotechnological techniques and further vitroplant
acclimatization to environmental conditions is very important
for its culture. This study was carried out at the National
Institute of Agricultural Sciences (INCA) and Vitroplant-factory
of San José de las Lajas, with the objective of evaluating
oligogalacturonide effect on �??FHIA-18�?? banana vitroplant
acclimatization. A mixture of organic matter and eutric
compacted Red Ferralitic soil at a rate of 3:1 v/v was used as a
substrate. After approximately 60 days, survival percentage,
leaf number, pseudostem diameter, plant height, root number
and length, as well as leaf proline content were evaluated. As
a result, vitroplant root imbibition for 15 minutes before being
planted and foliar spraying with oligogalacturonide at different
concentrations (1, 5 and 10 mg.L-1) 15 days after planting
increased plant survival by 8 % approximately compared to
the control; every plant receiving oligogalacturonide were
higher, had more amount of leaves and less foliar proline
content.
