Use of biotechnological methods for the Albanian genetic resources

Kongjika E., Zeka Z., Caushi E., Stamo I., Babani F.

In the context of serious transitory conditions in Albania (massive deforestation, loss of fruit orchards, decrease in agricultural production, etc.), the authors support possible strategies for the use of 'in vitro' culture techniques by way of experimental studies on: micro propagation of embryo culture for the forest species threatened to disappear (walnut, Valona oak and holm oak) as a useful alternative for the rapid reforestation; micro propagation and genetic improvement of rare plants in the Balkan region (i.e. Ramonda serbica panc.) so as to cultivate them as decorative plants of rocky gardens; the recovery of carnation, its autochthonous varieties, and potato by way of meristem culture for the production of virus-free plants. Plants were tested by means of indicators and induced fluorescence; the regenerating ability of wheat anthers among 20 Albanian cultivars in order to obtain haploid culture of wheat anthers.
