Influence of Plant Growth Regulators and Media strength on In vitro Propagation of Amomum subulatum Roxb
Conclusion: The present study revealed that, highest growth of plantlets in terms of shoots developed/explant and number of leaves developed/shoots was achieved in MS media having BAP with the concentration of 2.0 mg L–1. Likewise, 1.0 mg L–1 BAP with 0.2 mg L–1 of IAA also exhibit positive impact on root proliferation and root length. The protocol developed could be used for developing the superior quality of plants.
