Kiwifruit shoots can be rapidly propagated through a micro-cross section (MCS) system we established here. Optimal culture conditions were determined for different expiant types, section sizes, and concentrations of inorganic salts and plant growth regulators. Rates of survival and callus formation were higher in half-strength MS salts than in full-strength MS media. Similar performance (i.e., survival and callus formation) was achieved with section sizes of either 800 μm or 1200 μm. Proliferation efficiency was greatest when expiants from stem tissue were cultured on 1/2 MS supplemented with 4.5x10-3 μM 2,4-dichlo-rophenoxyacetic acid and 4.6x10-1 μM zeatin. The number of shoots averaged 2.61 per expiant, representing an efficiency of 94%. RAPD analysis revealed that the regenerated plants from our MCS system were genetically stable. These results show that the culturing of micro-cross sections from stem tissue is a powerful method for kiwifruit propagation.
