Efisiensi Mikropropagasi Pisang Kepok Amorang melalui Modifikasi Formula Media dan Temperatur

Abstract

<p>Micropropagation Efficiency of Banana cv Kepok<br />Amorang through Modifications of Culture Media and<br />Incubation Temperature. Yati Supriati. The budless<br />banana cv Kepok Amorang is potentially commercialized<br />due to its sweet taste and does not have flower bud, hence<br />reduced the potential of being infected by the blood disease<br />pathogen. Enhancement of banana industry needs continuous<br />supplies of large number banana seedlings. In vitro<br />culture enable the production of seedlings in a large scale,<br />uniform, quick. The research aims: (1) to formulate an<br />efficient medium for in vitro multiplication of cv Kepok<br />Amorang shoot, (2) to identify efficient growth environment<br />for in vitro culture of cv Kepok Amorang, and (3) to formulate<br />an efficient culture medium for roots inductions of cv<br />Kepok Amorang. The plant material used was in vitro culture<br />of Kepok cv Amorang, 2 cm in height without leaf and root.<br />The media formulation for shoot multiplication were full<br />strength, half strength, one fourth strength MS media,<br />supplemented with either 1, 3, or 5 ppm IBA. On optimization<br />step, the media tested were MS, Knop, Knop and<br />Heller, Hyponex N, Growmore N, and Rosasol N containing<br />of 1 ppm BA. The explants were incubated in culture room<br />with 8, 12, and 16 hours photoperiod with temperatures 30oC<br />(non air conditioned) and 25oC (air conditioned). The root<br />induction trial was done using MS, Knop, Knop and Heller,<br />Hyponex N, Growmore N, and Rosasol N media containing<br />of 1 ppm and 3 ppm IBA. The results showed that the best<br />medium formula for shoot multiplication was ¼ MS + 1 ppm<br />IBA. The best incubation condition was 16 hours photoperiods<br />at 30oC. The best media for root induction was<br />Hyponex 2 g/l + 1 ppm IBA. This culture method reduced<br />cost by Rp 261.7 per plantlet through efficiency of media<br />formulation and electricity use.</p>
