Conteúdo: | Plantlet production through in vitro culture of shoot tips is now possible in many plant species like carnation geranium, gladiolus, orchid, tobacco and chrysanthemum. Such a technique of meristem culture is not known to have been standardised in pineapple, though the benefits accruing from such a technique are numerous. Firstly, pineapple offers itself as an ideal material for mutation research since the rate of spontaneous mutations is very high in this crop. If one in able to obtain intact plants developing from minimum amount of tissue, this would reduce the chances of diplontic selection in a mutation breeding programme thereby obtaining whole plant mutants than merely obtaining chimeras. In such a system it is also possible to incorporate the growth mediawith mutagens and then study the mutagenesis.
