Influence of various phytohormones on the growth and development of the Solnechny potato variety in vitro

In the work, the study of six different nutrient medium compositions’ influence on the growth and development of a healthy Solnechny potato variety in the growing process in laboratory conditions in vitro was carried out. The influence of different nutrient medium compositions on plant height, number of leaves/internodes, plant weight and total leaf surface area was studied. It was revealed that nutrient media with BAP addition cause a decrease in all of the above indicators. In addition, nutrient media with this growth regulator lead to the appearance of microtubers on the plants. It has been shown that the inclusion of GA and IAA growth regulators in nutrient media leads to a slight increase in the number of internodes. An increase in the total leaf surface area was noted in the above options. It should be noted that the nutrient medium options with the addition of GA and IAA led to a decrease in the mass and length of the root system of Solnechnyi variety potato plants
