Other claims from this paper (8)
- Intervention effect 88 mM sucrose optimised shoot proliferation in both rootstocks versus 44 and 176 mM.
- Intervention effect Sucrose concentrations had no apparent effect on M 9 shoot length.
- Intervention effect 164 mM sorbitol produced the most and longest shoots per M 9 explant versus other tested concentrations.
- Intervention effect 329 mM sorbitol maximised fresh weight, new shoot number and shoot length per MM 106 explant.
- Association Plant mineral concentrations depended on genotype, carbohydrate source and concentration.
- Intervention effect Sorbitol-treated explants had the highest leaf and stem peroxidase and catalase activities.
- Observation Catalase electrophoretic profiles did not differ.
- Intervention effect Sucrose and sorbitol in MS medium altered leaf and stem peroxidase isoenzyme populations.
