In the present study, we used the two different sucrose concentrations (3% and 9% sucrose) in Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with 8 mg/l benzyladenine, 8 mg/l kinetin, 100 mg/l citric acid, 200 mg/l adenine sulfate and 2 mg/l indole-3-acetic acid to investigate the biochemical differences in the leaves of C. caesia. Biochemical parameters such as total sugar, proline, protein, chlorophyll, and h… Show more
