AbstractGermplasm conservation of pineapple [Ananas comosus (L.) Mer.] is crucial to preserve the genus’ genetic diversity, to secure material for genetic improvement and to support innovative and new research. Long-term conservation is accomplished through cryopreservation, that is done by storing cells or tissues at ultra-low temperature in liquid nitrogen (−196xa0°C). Droplet-vitrification, a combination of droplet freezing and solution-based vitrification, was used to establish a protocol for cryopreservation of pineapple genetic resources. This protocol was tested on cultivated and wild pineapple genotypes to establish a long-term germplasm security duplicate as well as to investigate cryo-injuries in the tissues by means of histological techniques. Excised shoot tips (0.5–1xa0mm with one primordial leaf) of different pineapple genotypes were precultured for 48xa0h on solid MS medium containing 0.3xa0M of sucrose. Three PVS2 exposure times (30, 45 and 60xa0min) were tested. The results showed high post cryopreservation survival for all genotypes evaluated. The best PVS2 exposure time varied according to genotype, although 45xa0min gave the best survival for the majority of genotypes. The technique was highly efficient in cryopreserving meristem shoot tips of different pineapple genotypes, and was also less laborious than techniques previously reported. This is a first report on application of the droplet-vitrification technique to diverse genotypes of cultivated and wild pineapples and the first report on histological changes occurring in cryopreserved Ananas tissue.n
