  Abstract:  VIEW PDF: POSTER ABSTRACTS

One of the main activities of the Botanical Gardens is ex situ conservation of threatened and endangered species. Among the species from the Romanian Red List of Endangered Species is Fritillaria meleagris L. known under the popular name “lalea pestriţă”, “bibilică”. At Biological Research Centre this species is conserved and multiplied in vitro for potential repopulation of habitats were Fritillaria existed, but now has disappeared (Valea Sălajului, near Cehu Silvaniei). In Sălaj county the species exists, on small habitats, near Chiesd, on the place named Coronzel and in “Poiana Mică” from Poarta Sălajului. Because of the anthropic activities, mainly excessive grazing, the population of Fritillaria decreases every year. For this reason, we set up an in vitro propagation protocol from bulb scales. After a few passages on MS medium with different concentrations of hormones, we obtained plantlets for going for the next step. After the aclimation the plantlets will be cultivated in the Botanical Garden “Vasile Fati” for ex situ conservation. Our goal is to produce enough biological material for possible repopulation of the areas were Fritillaria doesn’t exist anymore.
