Abstract

Experiments are underway, at the DISAFA in vitro culture laboratory, aimed at testing the optimal conditions for the recovery of Quercus robur samples suitable for restocking and developing in vitro multiplication protocols for selected abiotic stress-resistant genotypes (Figure 1). The germplasm taken into consideration consists of zygotic buds and embryos for which it is essential to be able, initially, to define the ideal conditions of vitality during growth and to optimize the culture conditions for the resumption of development. Nodal and apical segments of Quercus robur bearing buds have been taken both from young plants, obtained from seed and grown in pots on soil and from adult plants.
