A METHOD FOR PROPAGATING AN AQUATIC PLANT, A PACKAGE CONTAINING THE AQUATIC PLANT AND A METHOD OF DISPLAYING THE AQUATIC PLANT

摘要

A method for propagating a plant (20), in particular an aquatic plant in which a the conventional laboratory method for in vitro propagation of aquatic plants is modified so that the transfer steps between subsequent cultivation vessels with various nutritious culture mediums is modified so that a bag (1) is used as a first cultivation vessel, which is closed and sealed after transfer of a formative tissue part (14), and the proliferation of multiple shoots, the rooting of the shoots and the storage in proceed in the bag (1). The bag constitutes a package, which can be displayed in a convenient manner. Due to the reduced number of transfer steps between different growth environments, healthier aquatic plant can be propagation in vitro in a fast manner and at lower costs than when using the conventional technique.
