Clones production of Tectona grandis

摘要: Tectona grandis is a woody forest species of commercial interest that presents extensive plantations in the world, mainly due to wood be destined for several purposes, including noble applications which elevate their price market. Nevertheless, despite importance, there lack research regarding clone multiplication large scale selected genotypes, limiting progress improvement species. This review aims perform literature main scientific methods used obtain clones species, such as processes macropropagation and micropropagation, present perspectives future trends application new cloning techniques aiming production. According literature, some minicutting, autotrophic cultivation synthetic seeds may applied T. Further studies are however needed order prove viability produce clones. The disseminating can minimize costs, shorten production stages consequently, reduce time laboratory.
