Abstract

Investigations on garlic cryopreservation developed at the Institute for Fundamental Research on Tropical Agriculture (INIFAT) targets to preserve garlic clones adapted to tropical climate. The implementation of a cryopreserved collection requires determining the predicted number of viable explants in a genebank accession. That quantity can be estimated based on the number of explants processed, viability level of the control, and a desired confidence level. The garlic control cryopreserved sample evaluated in this assay included 40 apices and was cryopreserved by vitrification protocol, with the PVS3 solution. The sample had a viability of 0.76 and regenerated 23 viable plants. That number of plants was comparable to the quantity estimated for that viability level and number of processed explants, considering a confidence level of 95 % (25 plants). These results confirm the fitness of vitrification protocol, with the PVS3 solution, for garlic cryopreservation at INIFAT’s genebank, and constitute a contribution to the research for the implementation of a garlic cryopreserved collection in Cuba.
