In vitro germination and vegetative propagation through bud development of sacha inchi (Plukenetia volubilis L.)

This study describes the in vitro seed germination and micropropagation of Plukenetia volubilis (sacha inchi), an oilseed crop rich in omega-3 fatty acids, with health benefits and several industrial applications. Seed germination was evaluated in different culture media (MS and 1/2 MS), seed coat presence/absence and culture temperature (18 °C and 28 °C). Micropropagation was performed using axillary bud development (ABD) on nodal segments from in vitro seedlings. KIN, BAP and 2-ip were evaluated for ABD, and the effect of modified MS in 453 mg L-1 CaCl2 and 351.62 mg L-1 MgSO4 on ABD and shoot survival was assessed to improve the process. Finally, six treatments were evaluated to optimize ABD and shoot leaf formation. Seed germination of 91.6 % was achieved in MS at 28 °C when the seed coat was removed. ABD was obtained in 45 % and 40 % with 0.4 mg L-1 KIN and 0.6 mg L-1 2-ip, respectively, with the least CAL. The modification in 453 mg L-1 CaCl2 then allowed 76 % ABD and 82 % explant survival. ABD response was optimized to 95 % and 2.45 leaves with MS medium + CaCl2 modification + 10 % coconut water + 0.4 mg L-1 KIN. The same results were obtained by replacing the latter with 0.6 mg L-1 2-ip. Rooting was achieved in MS without PGR, and acclimatization was successful. The results indicate that plant production via germination and vegetative propagation is effective for commercial purposes.
