The interaction between cytokinin, auxin and GA controlled in vitro shoot multiplication in paulownia was influenced by a medium water potential (Ψ) modulation, where it was modulated using different textures or strengths of MS medium, media of different types (MS, WPM, SH and B5) or NaCl incorporation. The interaction between 2 mg/L BAP and 0.1 mg/L NAA expressed the highest shoot number on each media type, but it was better with media of lower water potential (MS and WPM), and MS medium was the best. Ψ of full-strength semisolid MS medium expressed the highest shoot multiplication. The opposite was detected when Ψ of MS medium was changed using half- or double-strength MS. Ψ of full-strength MS medium in semisolid form resulted in a valuable interaction between 2 mg/L BAP, 0.1 mg/L NAA and 0.1 mg/L GA, leading to efficient shoot formation, and it was associated with an increase in internode length and decrease in stem diameter, which facilitated obtaining synseeds with a high ability to convert. High genetic variation was recorded under long-term culture (14 subcultures). Polymorphism using the ISSR technique was higher than that of RAPD. A further increase in polymorphism was detected when NaCl was used, where five salt-tolerant lines were selected. Some salt-tolerant-selected lines showed one or more amplification products of a specific molecular weight that did not appear in the control. For example, with OPA-07 and OPG-02 RAPD primers, all the salt-tolerant-selected lines showed the appearance of amplification fragments (610 bp and 300 bp, respectively) that were not detected in control.
