weefselkweekplantjes (voor de bananenteelt) Explanation: However, there are hurdles that are limiting widespread uptake and optimal use of tissue culture technology among smallholder farmers in East Africa. Distribution systems of tissue culture plantlets to farmers are one key obstacle. Plantlets are often distributed in large quantities at subsidized prices by various development partners, but this is not sustainable in the long run. Tissue culture plantlets are fragile, and their thriving depends on good management by nursery operators and farmers, especially in the early stages. Finally, farmers buy and grow the tissue culture plantlets, in much the same way as banana plants derived from suckers or corm pieces. Trainer: Show the participants a culture bottle with plantlets that are ready to leave the laboratory for weaning. Briefly describe the remaining process the tissue culture plantlets have to go through before they are ready for planting: after leaving the laboratory, the tissue culture plantlets are removed from their culture containers, placed into small bags containing sterilized soil, and transferred to a humidity chamber for weaning.] http://biblio.iita.org/documents/U13ManLuleTrainersNothomNod... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_tissue_culture Weefselkweek (plant) Weefselkweek van wortel Weefselkweek is een methode om planten te vermeerderen onder steriele condities, die vaak wordt gebruikt om klonen van een plant te produceren. Weefselkweektechnieken kunnen een aantal voordelen hebben ten opzichte van conventionele vermeerderingstechnieken waaronder: https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Weefselkweek_(plant) Weefselkweek Tegenwoordig worden veel planten niet meer gescheurd, gezaaid of gestekt maar in een laboratorium 'geweefselkweekt'. Met een klein stukje plant wordt (volledig steriel) een kweek opgezet op een kunstmatige voedingsbodem. Deze kweek levert het uitgangsmateriaal voor de productie van grote hoeveelheden plantjes, die allemaal onder steriele omstandigheden opgekweekt worden. Na een gewenningsperiode worden de plantjes afgehard en doorgekweekt tot ze groot genoeg zijn om verkocht te worden. http://www.degroeneprins.nl/nl/plant-info/weefselkweel -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-10-14 01:30:27 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hetzelfde document (achtergrond): Banana in smallholder farmer systems in East Africa is traditionally propagated by means of suckers, which contain pests and diseases. Plants produced through tissue culture are mostly free from pests and diseases (with a few exceptions). There are many further benefits to using tissue culture plants: (1) they are more vigorous, meaning faster growth and higher yields; (2) they are more uniform, allowing for better planned marketing; (3) they can be produced in large quantities in a short period of time, facilitating distribution of both existing and new cultivars. In other words, tissue culture technology can help banana farmers to make the transition from subsistence to income generation. -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 1 hr (2015-10-14 01:39:24 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Increasing banana yields by using tissue culture method If the country [Uganda] is to advance in agriculture, it has to adopt technologies that give advantage to farmers in the provision of planting materials that are free of disease, mature fast, have better yield and are safe for human consumption. One of the types of technology that can be adopted is tissue culture as it is easily adoptive to existing planting materials that are indigenous and abundant. Tissue culture is a method of producing plants from roots, leaves or stems under sterile conditions and they can be produced in great numbers. And it can be for distribution to farmers at household and commercial levels. http://banana.aatf-africa.org/news/media/increasing-banana-y... |
