Haworthia Plant Tissue Culture
There are about 150 species of succulent Haworthia plants in the whole genus, which are widely distributed all over the world. Nature likes a warm, dry, and sunny ecological environment, avoid cold, frost, and humidity, the soil requirements are not strict, to fertile loose sandy loam soil is the most suitable.
Sclerophyllous herbaceous succulents of the genus Haworthia
Our proven system and quality technical services are the keys
to your quick access to quality seedlings and our capital to
stand in the industry.
Haworthia plant utilization value is high, the leaves are mostly lance-shaped triangular, long or cylindrical, fleshy and thick, smooth leathery surface, glossy, light green or dark green leaves, leaves with colored stripes or colored star-shaped spots. Some varieties of leaves are inlaid with clusters of golden yellow, pink stripes, very beautiful, with strong ornamental properties. As a potted plant is extremely suitable for office, living room, hall, balcony, and other decorative placement, not only has a fresh and elegant beauty but also can absorb harmful gases in the air, clean air environment, with environmental protection function. Therefore, popular in many large and medium-sized cities, has become a popular new favorite flower, economic benefits are significant.
Tissue culture services
Haworthia plants are propagated mainly by dividing plants and leaf cuttings, etc. The annual reproduction rate is very low and seedlings are scarce, which inhibits its industrial development. Lifeasible uses tissue culture to achieve rapid propagation of excellent varieties, using different tissues of Haworthia plants as explants and has established a whole set of tissue culture technology systems to produce stable and high-quality seedlings in vitro, which can not only achieve rapid propagation of plants but also effectively retain the ornamental characteristics of good species.
During the tissue culture of Haworthia plants, the induction rate of healing tissues varies greatly depending on the choice of explants. Our success stories include the successful induction of healing tissues using buds, intact leaves, scapes, flowering stems, newborn side shoots, seeds, inflorescences, and other tissues as explants.
However, according to our rich experience, inflorescence as the most suitable explant is convenient to take, does not harm the parent, sterilizes well, has a high rate of healing tissue induction and clump shoot differentiation, and the seedlings obtained completely retain the excellent traits of the parent. Therefore, we recommend you choose inflorescences or leaves as explants when submitting Haworthia plant material to our staff for us to carry out your project efficiently.
- Selection of culture medium
In Haworthia plant tissue culture, the medium is the basic nutrient necessary for plant growth and differentiation. We have different medium components according to the different needs of different explants and different stages of growth and development (induction of differentiated healing tissues and adventitious shoots, succession culture and proliferation culture, etc.).
In general, explants of Haworthia plants can proliferate and differentiate on basic media, but the addition of hormones and other additives can facilitate this process. Currently, the hormones we commonly use in Haworthia plant tissue culture are KT, 6-BA, NAA, IAA, IBA, and AC. The hormone types and concentrations have different effects on the induction, differentiation, proliferation, seedling strengthening, and rooting of explants.
