Optimization of Plant Growth Regulators for In Vitro Mass Propagation of a Disease-Free 'Shine Muscat' Grapevine Cultivar

초록

This study addresses the propagation challenges faced by 'Shine Muscat', a newly introduced premium grapevine cultivar in South Korea, where multiple viral infections pose considerable economic loss. The primary objective was to establish a robust in vitro propagation method for producing disease-free grapes and to identify effective plant growth regulators to facilitate large-scale mass cultivation. After experimentation, 2.0 mu M 6-benzyladenine (BA) exhibited superior shoot formation in the Murashige and Skoog medium compared with kinetin and thidiazuron. Conversely, alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) hindered shoot growth and induced callus formation, while indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) demonstrated favorable root formation, with IBA showing better results overall. Furthermore, inter simple sequence repeat analysis confirmed the genetic stability of in vitro-cultivated seedlings using 2.0 mu M BA and 1.0 mu M IBA, validating the suitability of the developed propagation method for generating disease-free 'Shine Muscat' grapes. These findings offer promising prospects for commercial grape cultivation, ensuring a consistent supply of healthy grapes in the market.
