| Summary: | Due to the interest shown in our country regarding the cultivation and marketing of purple flesh potatoes, we set ourselves the problem of examining the aspects that facilitate in vitro cultivation and obtaining micro tubers that ensure the faster micropropagation of purple potato varieties, formations that in modern food are also consumed raw. The paper aimed to present the protocol for obtaining vitro tubers or also called micro tubers from two varieties of potato: Christian with regular colour of flesh and Salad Blue with purple flesh. This protocol is based on micropropagation technique which combine an agar-solidified phase succeeded by a liquid phase in the same vessel in aseptic conditions. Using the double-phase technique gave the opportunity to reduce the costs generated by the utilities. |
