For multiplication of induced shoots, MS medium was
supplemented with BAP alone or in combination with
NAA and KIN (Table 2). It was observed that when BAP
was used alone at 10 mg/L, the response of shoot
multiplication was 90% with the highest number of shoots
per explant (9) and shoot length (7 cm) while at 8.8 µM,
the response in all parameters was less as shown in
Table 2. Among the different concentrations of BAP +
NAA, the best response (60%) was obtained in 8.68 µM
BAP + 2.68 µM NAA. Different concentrations of BAP +
KIN + NAA in mg/L were also used for multiplication and
55% response was obtained in 1.0 mg/L BAP + 1.0 mg/L
KIN + 0.5 mg/L NAA (Table 2 and Figures 1c to f).
