Abstract
The regeneration through meristem culture is an advanced biotechnological tehnique which is a very useful method for obtaining virus-free plants. In this study the effect of three media contains WPM, MS and QL and three different growth regulators combinations (0, 0.5 and 1 mgL -1 BA, 0.1 mgL -1 GA3 and 0.1 mgL -1 IBA) were investigated on regeneration of two Sweet cherry cultivars cvs. "Bing" and "Dovomras" in spring season. All experiments were arranged in completely randomized designed. Each treatment contained three replicates. Explants were soaked in 100 mgL -1 ascorbic acid and 150 mgL -1 citric acid for one hour before surface sterilization to prevent browning during in vitro culture. The meristem explants (0.5-0.7 mm) cultured in media and maintained at 26°C under a 16 hr-light/8 hr-dark with a light intensity of 2000-3000 lux from white fluorescent light. After six weeks, survival, necrosis and contamination percent were studied. The results showed that WPM medium induced the most survival percent in both cultivars. MS medium decreased the survival percent and maked the highest necrosis percent in both cultivars. Cultivars showed different responses to concentration of BA, so that, "Bing" cultivar in 1 mgL -1 BA and "Dovomras" in 0.5 mgL -1 BA had the best response (55.53-38.96%). The results also showed that "Bing" were more stable and had a higher survival
