Abstract
In vivo nbsp propagation of micropropagated sugarcane plants of three selected sugarcane genotypes was carried out with the objective of evaluating their proliferation responses to BAP Accordingly six levels of BAP and mgL with three sugarcane genotypes in a completely randomized design with times factorial treatment combination arrangements were tested Data on the number of tillers per shoot average shoot length cm and number of leaves per shoot were collected after days of planting on white polyethylene bag having cm height and cm diameter filled with soil compost and sand at the ratios of respectively Analysis of variance revealed that the interaction effects of BAP and the sugarcane genotypes was very highly significant P lt on the response variables tested In sugarcane genotype C the optimum number of tillers per shoot and average shoot length cm were recorded on mgL BAP while the maximum number of leaves was obtained at and mgL In sugarcane genotype C the optimum number of tillers per shoot and number of leaves per shoot were obtained at mgL BAP while the maximum average shoot length was observed at mgL In sugarcane genotype SP the maximum average shoot length cm and highest number of leaves per shoot were obtained at mgL BAP while the optimum number of tillers per shoot was recorded at mgL BAP Therefore from this result it can be concluded that using this result on average a plantlet can produce tillers per shoot within a month and can reduce plantlets procurement cost by nbsp
