<br/><br/> <br/><br/>Abstract<br/><br/>The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of sucrose and substrates on the acclimatization of micropropagated<br/>Luehea divaricata plants. First, the effect of sucrose on in vitro growth and development of nodal segments in Woody<br/>Plant Medium reduced to its half concentration was tested. After that, these shoots were then acclimatized and the<br/>combined effect of sucrose, as previously described, plus the commercial substrates vermiculite, MecPlant® or H-decker®<br/>were tested. In the in vitro culture, root and leaf formation were superior (44%, 8.44 leaves) with 20 g L-1 sucrose,<br/>and then the presence of sucrose continued to be more efficient in the acclimatization with the MecPlant® or H-decker®<br/>commercial substrates. Sucrose at 20 g L-1 is more efficient for in vitro leaf and root formation, and the MecPlant®<br/>or H-decker® substrates may be used in acclimatization.<br/><br/>Keywords: micropropagation, forest species, carbohydrate.
