| Summary: | The effects of AgNO<sub>3</sub> treatment on adventitious-buds formation in mulberry leaves cultured in vitro were studied. The results showed that compared with the control, treatment with addition of AgNO<sub>3</sub> to the culture media at the concentration of 1.0-2.0 mg·L<sup>-1</sup> presented a stable differentiation rate of 81.3%-87.5%, substantial increase of the clustered buds rate and 5-7 days earlier initiation of adventitious-buds differentiation. It was also found that the duration of culturing leaves on the media containing AgNO<sub>3</sub> should be no longer than 10 days, otherwise the frequency of differentiation would be reduced, and the cultures grew poorly, due to the toxic effect of Ag<sup>+</sup>. |
