Priming for transplant stress resistance in In vitro propagation

Summary

Production of high-quality, vigorous tissue-culture-derived propagules requiles efficient ways for the enhancement of their post-transplanting ability for water management, photosynthesis, and resistance to diseases. Certain molecules, environmental factors, microorganisms, or their parts, can pre-sensitize cellular metabolism of plants, so upon exposure to stress these pre-sensitized, or ‘primed’, plants are able to respond quicker, and to a higher degree than nonprimed, and thus cope better with the challenge. In this review we propose the adoption of the term ‘priming’ for tissue culture propagation and outline the approaches to in vitro propagule priming, based on the changes to the growth enviroment (chemical, physical, and biological) prior to and/or upon transplanting. Major emphasis has been placed on in vitro and ex vitro biopriming (priming with beneficial microorganisms).
