“…For example, Al-Khayri et al (1992) observed that the addition of 15% coconut water to the culture medium increased callus growth, regenerative potential and bud growth in spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.). The composition of coconut water, the liquid endosperm of coconut (Cocos nucifera L.), depends on factors such as the coconut variety, stage of maturity and cultivation practices (Prades et al 2012). Coconut water presents a unique chemical composition of sugars, vitamins, minerals, proteins, amino acids and phytohormones and it is extensively used as a growth-promoting supplement in plant tissue culture (Ma et al 2008;Yong et al 2009).…”

“…Menurut Uphade et al (2008) unsur K merupakan mineral utama yang terkandung dalam air kelapa. Kandungan unsur kalium yang cukup tinggi pada air kelapa juga dapat merangsang pembungaan pada anggrek seperti Dendrobium dan Phalaenopsis (Prades et al 2012). Dilaporkan juga kandungan unsur mineral K pada air kelapa tua lebih tinggi dibandingkan air kelapa muda (Thampan dan Rethinam 2004;Santoso et al 1996).…”
