Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of plant tissue culture, in particular to a method for inducing test tube tube roots of dahlia under tissue culture conditions. Background Art
[0002] Dahlia (Dahlia pinnata Cav) is a perennial bulbous flower in the genus Dahlia in the Asteraceae family, comprising approximately 27 species. Also known as Dahlia, Dahlia, Passionflower, Western Peony, Dahlia, Sweet Potato Flower, and Red Potato Flower, it is native to Mexico, Colombia, and Guatemala, and later spread to Europe, Japan, and China. Dahlias are known for their graceful blooms, diverse shapes, long blooming period, and wide variety, earning them a reputation as the darling of flowers. Dahlias are the product of natural interspecific hybridization, with a relatively recent history of artificial breeding. They are widely cultivated worldwide, and are currently most widely cultivated in Northeast, Northwest, and North my country.
[0003] Dahlias have been artificially hybridized and selected to become allo-octoploids, with new varieties emerging in an endless stream. They have gorgeous colors, long flowering periods, strong adaptability, and are easy to cultivate. There are many varieties with rich and bright colors and beautiful flower shapes. There are not only a variety of single-color flowers, but also more and more gorgeous multi-color flowers with unique and diverse flower shapes. At present, China refers to international classification standards and divides dahlias into seven major color systems according to flower color, namely red, yellow, purple, white, black, pink and multi-color. According to flower shape, they are divided into twelve types, namely single-petal type, laurel type, decorative type, collar type, rosette type, ball type, hydrangea type, chrysanthemum type, peony type, cactus type, loose hair type and plate type, with extremely high ornamental value.
[0004] There are many ways to propagate dahlias, including seed propagation, root division, cuttings, and tissue culture. Root division and cuttings are commonly used in production. While these methods offer high survival rates, they have low propagation coefficients, far from meeting the needs of year-round propagation and cultivation. Tissue culture allows for rapid expansion, particularly by obtaining virus-free seedlings, which can preserve the variety's desirable traits, reduce the incidence of viral diseases, and effectively improve dahlia quality. The induction and efficient propagation of in vitro root tubers is a key technology for tissue culture seedling production, effectively improving the efficiency of large-scale tissue culture production and offering promising prospects for widespread application.
[0005] Previous patents on dahlia tissue culture and propagation have been partially reported. For example, the patent "A High-Efficiency Propagation Method for Virus-Free Dahlia Seedlings" (CN105028214A) discloses a method for efficiently propagating virus-free dahlia seedlings. The method includes pretreatment of virus-free dahlia seedlings, induction of adventitious buds, subculture of adventitious buds by cutting, seedling hardening, hydroponic rooting, hydroponic seedling strengthening, and transplanting. This method addresses the issues of low efficiency and recontamination during the propagation process, allowing for the rapid production of large quantities of high-quality virus-free dahlia seedlings in a short period of time. The patent "A Method for Preserving Dahlia Germplasm Propagated by Tissue Culture" (CN105123524A) discloses a method for preserving dahlia germplasm propagated by tissue culture, including explant selection and low-temperature pretreatment, inoculation, adventitious bud induction and transfer, slow-growth preservation of germplasm, rejuvenation, and rooting and transplanting. This method can preserve dahlia germplasm for up to four years, while also addressing the problems of large space requirements and high costs associated with germplasm preservation. It is simple to operate and offers stable and reliable technology. The patent "Dahlia Foot Bud Year-Round Rapid Propagation Technology" (CN200910205123.8) discloses a method that utilizes advanced solar greenhouses, cold storage, germination, and excellent cutting media to increase the number and frequency of dahlia foot bud propagation, significantly improving the survival rate of dahlia foot bud cuttings and creating conditions for the rapid propagation and application of new dahlia varieties. However, the above patents only cover the dahlia propagation process up to rooting culture and do not address the induction of tuber roots during dahlia propagation.
[0006] Previous research on dahlia tissue culture includes the following: Li David et al. (1986) used stem segments, flower buds, leaves, and axillary buds of dahlia as explants and induced callus tissue by adding an appropriate combination of hormones. Tian Songqing et al. (2020) optimized the optimal formula for primary culture, callus induction, subculture, and rooting using stem segments of the dahlia cultivar "Feluoga" as explants. Wei Sanli et al. (1996) used young leaves of adventitious buds from dahlia tubers as explants to induce bud differentiation and rooting. Ren Guihong et al. (2012) determined that dahlia apical buds and stem segments with axillary buds were the most suitable explants for in vitro rapid propagation. The hormone ratio suitable for the growth and differentiation of newly emerged axillary buds was 1 mg / L 6-BA + 0.2 mg / L NAA, while the hormone ratio suitable for adventitious bud differentiation from leaves was 3 mg / L 6-BA + 0.1 mg / L NAA. Zhao Yange et al. (2017) optimized tissue culture techniques using dahlia stem tips, stem segments with axillary buds, and leaves as explants, and determined that the optimal bud-inducing medium was MS supplemented with 0.5 mg / L 6-BA and 0.2 mg / L NAA, the optimal proliferation medium was MS supplemented with 2 mg / L 6-BA and 1 mg / L NAA, and the optimal rooting medium was 1 / 2 MS supplemented with 1 mg / L NAA, 4 mg / L agar, and 20 mg / L sucrose. However, the above studies were all about dahlia tissue culture, mostly focusing on adventitious bud induction, proliferation and rooted seedling transplanting, and there were few reports on in vitro tuber formation and transplanting. Summary of the Invention
[0007] Purpose of the invention: The purpose of the present invention is to address the deficiencies of the existing technology and provide a method for inducing tuber roots of dahlia under tissue culture conditions. By synergistically applying exogenous hormones through induction treatment at different stages, the reproductive efficiency of dahlia can be effectively improved and the breeding cycle can be shortened.
