Micropropagated shoots selected at random from four subcultures onto either Murashige & Skoog or Lee & Fossard media, each of them supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) at 1.0 mg l-1, indolylacetic acid (IAA) at 1.0 mg l-1 and gibberellic acid (GA3) at 0.1mg l-1, were subjected to molecular analysis. Ten deca-nucleotide primers (among 48 tested) were chosen for RAPD analysis, all of them indicating genetic stability for micropropagated plants of the investigated varieties of ornamental strawberry. %U http://www.gbm.bio.uaic.ro/index.php/gbm/article/view/996
