%T  In vitro organogenesis in Rumex thyrsiflorus Fingerh. – problems of sex ratios
%K 
%X   Rumex thyrsiflorus  Fingerh. is one of the few dioecious plant species, which have sex chromosomes. We conducted the preliminary experiments to determine the type of morphogenesis of  R. thyrsiflorus  explants cultured  in vitro  and to verify, using PCR-based methods, if there is the relationship between sex and morphogenetic response of explants micropropagated under  in vitro  conditions. The results of our studies revealed the female-biased sex ratios among explants cultured  in vitro  (M:F=1:1.7). The female-biased sex ratios in case of explants showed organogenesis  in vitro  (M:F=1:2.44) may suggest a higher regeneration ability of female explants.
