Silver nitrate and silver-thiosulphate mitigates callus and leaf abscission during Shisham clonal micro-propagation
2021
Raturi, M.K. | Thakur, A.
Basal callus formation and leaf abscission is a problem in clonal micropropagation. We have described an in vitro clonal propagation protocol of Dalbergia sissoo Roxb (shisham) ‘FRI-14’ in which AgNO₃ played important role not only in mitigating problem of leaf abscission and basal callus, but also improved shoot induction and multiplication. Best induction and shoot multiplication was obtained on MS media with 1.5 mg/l 6-BAP and 10 mg/l AgNO₃ and half-strength MS media with 0.5 mg/l 6-BAP, 2 mg/l AgNO₃ and 50 mg/l Adenine sulphate whereas best ex vitro rooting was obtained with 200 mg/l IBA in pulse treatment.
