Study of in-vitro propagation on pomegranate (Punica granatum cv. Malas Saveh) through auxiliary shoot proliferation from single nodes

Punica granatum cv. Malas Saveh is one of the most desirable marketing cultivars in Iran. In order to introduce the best hormonal treatments for micropropagation of this cultivar via single node culture some experiments were conducted. The best medium was MS and among the hormonal compositions, 7 mg/1 BA with 0.1 mg/1 GA3 were the best treatments. Average of shoot number in this treatment was 4.8 although shoot length was not desirable. Medium containing 1 mg/1 BA with 0.1 mg/1 GA3 produce the best length (2.45 cm). The highest rooting was obtained in half-strength MS containing 2 mg/1 IB A with 4.8 root per explant. Rooted plantlets were transferred to Jiffy and acclimatized after 35 days successfully.
