Research on the Propagation of Amor phophallus in vitro
Segments from stem root, stem tuber and seed of A. albus an d A. konja c were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various combinations of BA, NAA a nd KT in different concentrations. The results showed that BA and NAA favored th e development of Amor phophallus in vitro. There were variances in sprout rege neration capability among different explants. The analogous tubers initiated fro m the callus of the segments could be used as seed tubers for commercial product ion. The browning of the segments during culture could be inhibited through exci sing segments in 1% citric acid solution.
