摘要

The Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands consists of a group of islands in the western pacific. Taro (Colocasia esculenta (L.) Schott) is one of the important subsistence food crops grown in the Northern Marianas. The quality and production oftaro crop has been severely affected in recent years by the introduction of major diseases and pests impacting taro production. The downturn in the islands' economy, natural disasters such as droughts and typhoons, and paucity of quality planting material have also had considerable constraints on taro production in the Commonwealth. The Cooperative Research, Extension and Education Service Department of the Northern Marianas College introduced a tissue culture program for the in-vitro multiplication and propagation of quality planting material of taro. New varieties of taro produced in-vitro were introduced from the regional certified institution and evaluated for tolerance to insect pests and diseases, plant growth, corm quality, high yield, taste and superior agronomic characters. Twenty-three varieties of taro propagated through tissue culture were tested at the Agriculture Experiment Station. Field trials and taste testing of new varieties were successfully conducted throughout the islands of Saipan, Rota and Tinian. Results indicated that new varieties performed well in local soil and climatic conditions of the Northern Mariana Islands. Japanese varieties (CA/JP-01, 06 and 09) rated excellent for taste, quality of corms, easy cooking, plant growth and yield comparable to other varieties. The selected varieties of taro were identified as the economically and culturally important ones that have been tested for superior characteristics in the region.
