Morphological variations and isoenzyme polymorphism of date palm clones from in vitro culture acclimatized and established on soil in South Morocco. |
||
Five
clones of date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) corresponding to three
reputed Moroccan cultivars (BFG, JHL and BSK) and two selected seedling
genotypes (S16 and S35), derived from in vitro culture, were acclimatized
and planted in Errachidia soil (South Morocco) in 1989. After 10 years of
culture, clones were evaluated on the presence/absence of the two principal
morphological characters (offshoots, inflorescences). Then, their leaf extracts
were subjected to electrophoresis on polyacrylamide gels in order to determine
their isoenzyme polymorphism. Inflorescence formation is relatively more
frequent in the clones S16 and S35 than in clones JHL and BSK. Clone BFG
showed an intermediate situation. High isoenzyme variations were found for
the oxidoreductases (peroxidases (POX) and polyphenoloxidases (PPO)),
the transferase (glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT)) and the hydrolases (esterases (EST) and endopeptidases (ENP)) enzymes. The factorial component analysis exhibited a negative correlation between the two principal morphological characters (presence of inflorescences and offshoots formation). Date palm clones typified respectively by high inflorescences and high offshoots formed two separated groups showing each one some isoenzyme characteristics. All morphological and enzyme variations were discussed in respect to the genotype effect on the micropropagation process. See more details in published work: AZEQOUR, MAJOUGHAT & BAAZIZ (2002).

Date palm cultivar composition of Moroccan palm groves as revealed by leaf isoenzyme phenotypes. |
||
Date production (quantity and quality) is always related to cultivar composition of the palm groves. Cultivated varieties are generally identified by their fruit characteristics (shape, weight, colour, aspect of skin, consistency, texture, etc.). All of these criteria could easily be modified by the conditions of date palm culture. Their appearance take about 6 years of culture (slow flowering and fruiting). Based on isoenzyme electrophoresis, 28 reputed cultivars of the date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.), previously characterized by morphological characters, were identified using the more variable enzyme systems in the date palm: esterases (EST), endopeptidases (ENP) and glutamate oxaloacetate transaminase (GOT), which showed, respectively, eight, six and seven electrophoretic phenotypes in leaf material. For more details see Biochemical Systematics and Ecology 26 (1998) , 71-82. |
||
The phenotype combinations lead to an isoenzyme-based key for date palm cultivar determination. Cultivar composition of 11 date palm groves, differing in their geographical origins, were compared.
|
Unidentified material represented about 67% (+11%) of each date palm grove with the exception of populations at M'hamid and Rissani. This result confirmed the predominance of date palms derived from germinated seeds and called locally 'khalts'. The most frequent cultivars within the 11 date palm groves were Jihel and Bou-Feggouss, which exhibit good fruit qualities. Based on the cultivar composition of each population, the factorial component analysis showed that the Marrakech date palm grove, situated at the northern side of High Atlas, was related to date palm groves of Skoura, Ait Atman, Ksar Jdid and Ksar Sifa. Date palm populations of Zagora, M'hamid and Rissani, eachrepresented a unique type, were characterized by cultivars Bou-Sthammi Noire, Bou-Skri (and Iklane) and Bou-Feggouss, respectively. Cultivar compositions of date palm groves, determined separately on the basis of isoenzymes phenotypes and fruit qualities, were compared and discussed. |
