Title: A Study on the Inducing of Polyploid of in Vitro Cells of Capsicum Annuum L.
Abstract: The callus obtained from the hypocotyls and cotyledon of Capsicum annuum L.were treated by adding colchicine into the medium and by colchicine soaking.The result shows that the former method was better than the later.The best result for inducing tetraploid was by adding colchicine 1000mg/L into the medium treated for 4 days,the inducing rate was up to 80%.The chromosome number of the tetraploid was 2n=4x=48,while that of diploid was 2n=2x=24.
