الملخص الإنجليزي

This in vitro study was conducted to investigate the effect of the various concentrations of different sugars as carbon sources on two potato cultivars (Desiree and Mozart) microtuberization.

An attempt was done to achieve a protocol for microtuberization from a single bud explant by determining the most optimal types and concentrations of sugars including sucrose, glucose, fructose and lactose at 70, 80 and 90 gl-1 on MS medium.

The best results were obtained from the use of fructose (70 gl-1) for Desiree and Mozart potato by producing 9.00 microtubers per an explant.

Whereas, adding glucose and fructose at 80 gl-1 gave the highest mean length for microtubers (2.83 cm) for Mozart potato cultivar.

While the highest microtubers diameter (0.63 cm) was recorded at the case of adding 70 gl-1 of fructose for the cultured explants of Desiree potato cultivar.

The acclimatized plantlets of both cultivars performed very well at greenhouse condition with about 100% success.

The grown microtubers in soil gave uniform plants without any growth abnormalities
