Introducción in vitro de Miconia zamorensis, utilizando semillas y fragmentos nodales.

Abstract

In the south of Ecuador, at canton Paquisha, in Chinapintza sector, is located one of the largest gold deposits of Ecuador. Pollution of water sources, caused by Arsenic and Mercury affects the normal development of the population. The “Design bioremediation strategies based on plant-microorganisms consortiums for the recovery of contaminated by mining activities in the province Zamora-Chinchipe soils”. Program has as one of its objectives to study the potential bioaccumulative of Hg and As in Miconia zamorensis. A randomized complete blocks design was established, working with growth regulators and chemicals like kinetin, gibberellic acid, hydrogen peroxide and potassium nitrate. In order to study methods to shorten the germination time of Miconia zamorensis through an in vitro and ex vitro cultivation. The in vitro standard protocol was applied, having as a result the data production of the specie in vitro; and plants were obtained from the ex vitro experiment (2746).
