EFFECT OF BAP ALONG WITH 2.4, D ON THE INDUCTION OF SHOOTS FORMATION ON POTATO CULTIVAR ARIZONA IN VITRO

Abstract

This research delves into the intricate interplay between two key growth regulators, BAP (6-benzylaminopurine) and 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), investigating their collective influence on shoot induction in the in vitro cultivation of the esteemed potato cultivar Arizona. The study is meticulously designed to unravel the nuanced impact of these regulators on shoot initiation within a controlled laboratory setting. Potato micropropagation stands as an essential facet of agricultural advancement, and the stimulation of efficient shoot formation serves as a pivotal step in this process. The unique growth characteristics of Cultivar Arizona provide an ideal platform for evaluating the synergistic effects of BAP and 2,4-D on the initiation and proliferation of shoots. By meticulously observing and quantifying the response of potato explants to varying concentrations and combinations of BAP and 2,4-D, this study aims to discern optimal conditions conducive to enhanced shoot development. Through detailed analysis and observation, the research seeks to contribute valuable insights into refining in vitro cultivation methodologies for potato propagation, aiming at elevating efficiency and yield
