A commercial citrus scion cultivar, '439' tangor [C. Suavissima Hort. et Tanaka x C. sinensis (L.) Osbesk cv.Gailiangcheng] was used to investigate whether GSH (reduced form of glutathione) could improve survival of a vitrification procedure. The optimal pre-growth treatment was a 3-day pre-culture on basal pre-culture medium (BPM: MT basal medium containing 0.5 mol/L glycerol and 5 % sucrose at pH 5.8). GSH of 40 mg/L in the pre-culture medium improved shoot tip survival after cryopreservation. GSH in the recovery medium also improved survival, with 10 mg/L giving the best result. GSH of 40 mg/L in the loading and vitrification solutions also improved survival. The optimal cryopreservation protocol was successfully applied to 12 other citrus cultivars. This is the first report on the successful cryopreservation of shoot-tips from commercial citrus scion cultivars.

The objective of this work was to assess the suitability of the Droplet-vitrification protocol previously developed with shoot tips for the cryopreservation of six species. Shoot tips were precultured for 1 day on a medium with 0.3 M sucrose in the dark, loaded in a solution with 1.

The integration of nanoparticles into plant cryopreservation protocols holds great promise for improving the survival rates and recovery potential of explants. This study aimed to verify the effect of nanoparticles on the ex-vitro performance of cryopreservation-derived plants. Lamprocapnos spectabilis (L.

Establishment of a new method for improved shoot tip cryopreservation is crucial to facilitate the long-term preservation of plant germplasm as well as the use of cryotherapy for pathogen eradication. The present study reported a vitrification (V) cryo-foil method for shoot tip cryopreservation and virus eradication in apple. Shoot tip regrowth levels after cryopreservation were comparable among V cryo-foil (53 %), V cryo-plate (46 %) and conventional droplet vitrification (Dr-vi, 48 %).
