The greatest growth of wheat and rape plants in vitro was reached on media with 5 or 9 % sucrose, respectively. The highest efficiency for transfer of these plants to ex vitro conditions was found at the same sucrose concentrations. The content of endogenous non-structural saccharides (glucose, fructose, sucrose, starch and fructans) increased with increasing sucrose concentration in the medium up to 10 %.

Keywords: Brassica napus; ex vitro acclimation; Triticum aestivum
Subjects: acclimation to ex vitro conditions; Brassica napus; callus (tissue) culture, sugar supply; in vitro culture, transfer to ex vitro; rape, ex vitro acclimation; sugar supply, transfer to ex vitro; Triticum aestivum; wheat, ex vitro acclimation
