摘要
Abstract Pueraria tuberosa, a medicinally important leguminous plant, yielding various isoflavanones including puerarin, is threatened, thus requiring conservation. In this study, fresh shoot sprouts of P. tuberosa, produced by tubers, were used as explants for in vitro micropropagation. Surface-sterilized nodal shoots were incubated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 8.88 μM benzyladenine (BA), 50 mg l⁻¹ ascorbic acid, and 25 mg l⁻¹ of each of citric acid and adenine sulphate. Cut ends of nodal stem segments rapidly turned brown, and cultures failed to establish. When 100 mg l⁻¹ ascorbic acid (ABA) and 25.0 mg l⁻¹ polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) were added to the medium, explants remained healthy, and cultures were established. Bud-breaking of nodal stem explants resulted in multiple shoot formation. Shoots proliferated (35–40 shoots per culture vessel) on MS medium as described above, but supplemented with 4.44 μM BA and 0.57 μM indole acetic acid (IAA) and additives. After 4–5 passages, proliferating shoots exhibited tip-browning and decline in growth and multiplication. However, when shoots were transferred to fresh shoot proliferation medium supplemented with 2.32 μM kinetin (Kn), sustained growth and high rate of shoot proliferation (50–60 shoots per culture vessel) was observed. Shoots rooted when transferred to medium consisting of half- strength MS medium with 9.84 μM indole butyric acid (IBA) and 0.02% activated charcoal. Alternatively, individual shoots were pulsed with 984.0 μM IBA and transferred to glass bottles containing sterile and moistened soilrite. These shoots rooted ex-vitro and were acclimatized in the greenhouse. Plants were then analyzed for puerarin content using HPLC, and leaves showed maximum accumulation of purerarin.
