Abstract:Micropropagation can be used as an alternative method for vegetative propagation of mature birch trees in order to increase effectiveness of breeding. In this study the optimal concentration of synthetic cytokinin 6-benzylaminopurine and naturally occurring cytokinin zeatin were determined for shoot proliferation of birch genotype Bau-40-17. Woody Plant Medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine or zeatin at three different concentrations was used. The results showed that Woody Plant Medium supplemented with… Show more
