Abstract
In vitro based multiplication of a superior Brazilian Cavendish banana clone
Highlights
Introduction acceptability to all communitiesThis cropBanana is (Musa spp.) an important food cultivated in the tropical and sub-tropical crop
As discussed before that plant tissue culture (TC) techniques might facilitate in quick induction and distribution of novel varieties, conventionally bananas are propagated through suckers
They observed the decrease in shoot numbers from 14.12 - 5.05 of Nendran banana variety, when the concentrations of BAP increased to 20.0 milligram per liter
Summary
Pakistan cultivates bananas but most of it is consumed in local markets [2]. It is immediate source of energy due to its high carbohydrate contented it contains substantial amounts of phosphorus, calcium, potassium, vitamins C and more vitamins. This study was carried out to optimize the multiplication media of a higher Cavendish Banana replica so that a sufficient amount of superior quality of material for planting could be generated on mass scale to introduce it commercially in the province of Sindh, Pakistan Materials and methods This experiment was practiced in 2013 and 2014 at the laboratory of tissue culture. Frequency of survival (%) Survival rate (%) of banana shoot tips under in vitro culture was practiced on ten different Benzylaminopurine (BAP) applications ranging from 0.5 to 5.0 milligram per liter with equal intervals of 0.5 mgL-1 and a negative control that was the simple MS basal medium with no plant growth regulator or BAP.
