Other claims from this paper (14)
- Observation Juice vesicles from 120–180-day-old fruit proliferated by adventitious branching in culture.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid at 1–100 mg/L enhanced adventitious vesicle branching.
- Intervention effect Gibberellic acid delayed vesicle senescence and maintained green color for 4 to 6 months.
- Observation Vesicles without gibberellic acid matured and became opaque within two months.
- Observation Vesicles without gibberellic acid rarely produced adventitious branches.
- Intervention effect Adding α-naphthaleneacetic acid to gibberellic acid medium further enhanced branching in some taxa.
- Intervention effect Adding benzylaminopurine to gibberellic acid medium further enhanced branching in some taxa.
- Observation Adventitious juice vesicles were induced in seven named Citrus taxa.
- Observation Adventitious branches originated from primordia on cultured vesicle surfaces.
- Observation Branch primordia commonly occurred on the terminal meristem region.
- Observation C. grandis and C. paradisi also formed branches from vesicle bodies and stalks.
- Observation Distinct branches appeared after 30–60 days in culture.
- Observation Natural branching commonly occurred in C. grandis, C. paradisi and some C. reticulata cultivars.
- Observation Some species lacking natural branching nevertheless branched in culture.
