Heterosis is the phenomenon whereby hybrid offspring of genetically divergent parents display superior characteristics compared with their parents. Although hybridity and polyploidy can influence heterosis in hybrid plants, the differential contributions of hybridity vs polyploidy to heterosis effects remain unknown.

Questions

1–5 of 5 Questions  
  1. Would an incorrect pH level affect the setting of the agar?

    1 answer
    1. Yes, gelation is pH dependent. Adjusting the pH to 5.7 is recommended prior to heating to melt the agar and autoclaving to sterilize. Please see the link below to review the general plant culture medium preparation instructions available in the datasheet for product M5519 (formulation without agar):
