Mericlone shoots are shoots of propagation using meristem explants which aim to produce seeds in a short time, large number, and disease-free seed. The aim of this experiment was to find out the best types and concentration of cytokinin to mericlone shoot multiplication of potato Jala Ipam variety. The experiment was carried out at Seed Technology Tissue Culture Laboratory of Agriculture, Padjadjaran University during November 2016 until February 2017. The experimental design was Completely Randomized Design with 13 treatments and 4 replications. Murashige and Skoog Medium with different concentration and types of cytokinine was used in this experiment. The result showed that the type and concentrations of cytokinin give the different effect on the mericlone shoot multiplication of potato Jala Ipam variety. MS medium with the additional of cytokinin 2 -iP 1.5 mg L-1 significantly increased the mericlone shoot multiplication of potato Jala Ipam variety at the variable number of leaves, number of nodes, and the number of branches.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
