Wild ornamental germplasm exploration and domestication based on biotechnological approaches: In vitro colchicine treatment to obtain a new cultivar of Scoparia montevidiensis

The genus Scoparia is native from Argentina. The diversity of colours and shape of their flowers bestows this genus a very interesting ornamental potential. The purpose of the present study is to explore the Scoparia species germplasm by means of in vitro polyploidization in order to improve their o...
