Anderson Basal Salt Mixture
Product ID: A267

Introduction

Description: Contains the macro- and micronutrients as described by Anderson (1978, 1980).

Anderson achieved a two-fold increase in multiplication of red raspberries using this formulation compared to MS. The optimal concentrations of growth regulators for shoot multiplication of red and black raspberries was 0.1 - 2.5 µM IBA and 4.5 - 9.0 µM 6-BA.

Application Notes
Plant Tissue Culture Tested Plant Species: Rhododendron, Rubus (red and black raspberry).
Anderson achieved a two-fold increase in multiplication of red raspberries using this formulation compared to MS. The optimal concentrations of growth regulators for shoot multiplication of red and black raspberries was 0.1 – 2.5 µM IBA and 4.5 – 9.0 µM BA. Anderson’s medium contains approximately ¼ strength NH4NO3 and KNO3 compared to MS.
