  • Title: In Vitro Propagation and Variation of Antioxidant Properties in Micropropagated Vaccinium Berry Plants-A Review.
    Author: Debnath SC, Goyali JC.
    Journal: Molecules; 2020 Feb 12; 25(4):. PubMed ID: 32059466.
    Abstract:
    The berry crops in genus Vacciniun L. are the richest sources of antioxidant metabolites which have high potential to reduce the incidence of several degenerative diseases. In vitro propagation or micropropagation has been attractive to researchers for its incredible potential for mass production of a selected genotype in a short time, all year round. Propagation techniques affect the antioxidant activity in fruits and leaves. Total antioxidant activity was higher in the fruit of in vitro propagated plants compare to the plants grown ex vivo. This review provides critical information for better understanding the micropropagation and conventional propagation methods, and their effects on antioxidant properties and morphological differentiation in Vaccinium species, and fills an existing gap in the literature.
