A Multi-Parameter Approach for the Study of In Vitro Photosynthesis

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Current Plant Science and Biotechnology in Agriculture ((PSBA,volume 36))

Abstract

During transfer to ex vitro conditions, the physiological status of in vitro grown plantlets is an important factor determining success rates (Van Huylenbroeck and Debergh, 1996). Apart from the control of water loss (Santamaria et al, 1994), the in vitro acquisition of photosynthetic ability is of paramount importance. The present paper describes a multi-parametric approach, combining both in planta and in vitro analysis for the study of photosynthesis in coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) and oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq.) in vitro grown plantlets.
