Liquid culture application could increase the efficiency of in vitro culture process on plants. This research aimed to determine the best concentration of TDZ combined with kinetin for callus differentiation to somatic embryo of sago palm on three culture methods. Plant material used was embryogenic callus derived from tips meristem culture from sucker of Alitir sago palm. Callus was cultured on modified MS media added with: 0.0, 0.1, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L TDZ combined with 0.5 mg/L kinetin for 12 weeks with subcultures every 6 weeks. Three culture methods used were suspension, temporary immersion system (TIS), and solid media. There were 12 treatments with 4 replicates. The results showed that the highest number of somatic embryos was achieved on TIS culture with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L kinetin in 6 weeks (167.3 embryos/flask) and 12 we...

The use of plant biostimulant is an innovative strategy and proven previouslyto increase the productivity of several otherfood crops. The aim of this study was to analyze the effect of PPBBI biostimulant on the growth, productivity and quality of a Wilis variety of soybean under greenhouse conditions. PPBBI biostimulant at10 ppm and 20 ppm, was applied using foliar spray method with 20 mL volume to each plant. The applications were carried out 1 time, 2 times and 3 times. Six biostimulant treatments showed significant positive effects on the vegetative growth rate, generative organ development, and yield. The biostimulant accelerated vegetative growth to enter the generative phase earlier than that of in the control plants. The period of generative organs maturity required for treated plants was 7-14 d shorter than that of in the control plants so th...

Menggunakan Tiga Metode Kultur: Sistem Perendaman Sesaat, Suspensi dan Media Padat. Imron Riyadi, Djoko Santoso, Bambang S. Purwoko dan Darda Efendi. Metode kultur in vitro yang tepat akan meningkatkan efektifitas dan efisiensi pada proses penggandaan kalus maupun induksi embriogenesis somatik. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menentukan pengaruh metode kultur dan konsentrasi 2,4-D dalam proses penggandaan kalus maupun induksi embryogenesis somatic. Bahan tanam atau eksplan awal yang digunakan adalah kalus remah hasil induksi dari kultur meristem pucuk tunas anakan sagu. Kalus tersebut dikulturkan pada media Murashige dan Skoog modifikasi dengan penambahan 2,4-D 5,0 – 15,0 mg/L dikombinasikan dengan kinetin 0,1 mg/L yang menggunakan tiga metode kultur yaitu kultur suspensi, sistem perendaman sesaat (SPS) dan media padat, sehingga terdapat 12 kombinasi perlakuan. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa...
