Shoots of the marubakaido apple rootstock grown in culture medium containing BBL agar presented significantly lower multiplication rate (MR) compared to MRs found for shoots grown in medium containing A-7002, A-7921, Select, and Phytagar as gelling agents. In addition, significant hyperhydricity was found for shoots grown in Phytagar and A-7921 agar-containing media. Analysis of elastic (G') and viscous (G '') modulus showed that for all of the five agar brands used in this study, G' was always much higher, i.e., typically one order of magnitude higher than G '', which characterizes a strong gel. G' changed randomly with time for all of the agar brands studied, except for BBL, which presented progressive decline in G' throughout the culture cycle. Examination of G', within the same week, showed that Select agar always had the smallest G', while Phytagar always had the highest G'. Analysis of the loss tangent (tan delta=G ''/G'), a better indicator for get behavior compared to G' isolated, showed that tan 5 for Select and Phytagar were always between tan 6 values found for A-7002 and BBL. In addition, analysis of tan 6 also indicated that BBL and Select agars, showed a significantly weaker gel network, compared to Phytagar, A-7002 and A-7921 agars after the third week of culture. When seen together, these results indicate that shoot performance for the marubakaido rootstock is not related to agar gel strength. In addition, the high hyperhydricity rate found for shoots grown on agars A-7921 and Phytagar could not be related to agar gel strength, as well. Analysis of HPSEC profiles indicated that the best performance, i.e., multiplication rate, of marubakaido shoots in agars A-7002 and A-7921 is likely to be related to their lower polydispersity and/or smaller amount of high molecular weight fractions, compared to BBL, Phytagar, and Select agars.
