Maintenance and variation of chromosome ploidy under tissue culture conditions of different Camellia germplasms by LI Yaxuan1,2, LI Xinlei1, LI Jiyuan1, YIN Hengfu1*

“…The results were as follows:(1)Six of ten of Camellia germplasms were diploid, two of them were tetraploid, one hexaploid and one decaploid, and the germplasm materials largely maintained stable ploidy levels during the tissue regeneration processes.(2)The optimum conditions for colchicine treatment were obtained, that is, the callus was cultured in treatment medium containing colchicine at 20 mg·L-1 for 10 d, followed by regeneration in tissue-differentiation culture.(3)The ploidy analyses were carried out on the treated tissues in different differentiation states, and the results showed that most of the independent tissues(including 56 callus and shoots)were found to be aneuploids, 38 tissues had ploidy between 1.5 to 2.5, and 11 tissues produced less than 1.5. …”
