Effect of Carbon Dioxide and Ethylene on Tuberization of Isolated Potato Stolons Cultured in Vitro1

Angel M. Mingo-Castel, Fayek B. Negm and O. E. Smith

a Department of Plant Sciences, University of California, Riverside, California 92502

Carbon dioxide stimulates tuberization of isolated potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) stolons cultured in vitro. The stimulatory effect is inhibited by C2H4 which is by itself also inhibitory of tuberization. Furthermore, C2H4 inhibits kinetin-induced tuber initiation. Both the formation and elongation of roots are inhibited by C2H4. The antagonistic actions of CO2 and C2H4 on tuberization are discussed.
