Abstract

The production cost of micropropated plugs using axillary bud propagation was examined on the basis of data using Prunus verecunda culture as a model. The cheapest total production cost was estimated to be 306 yen per plug in the case of one production cycle per year, for a laboratory designating with a medium preparation room, operation and culture room, and an acclimation room for 10, 000 micro-propagules production. A low cost production system of the micropropagules was simulated by the use of that cost calculation formula changing the tissue culture parameters. From those results, it was found that the acclimation in a greenhouse utilizing sunlight was the most effective means to reduce the production cost of the micropropagated plugs.
