Effect of IAA Addition and Some Organic Supplements on Growth and Rooting of Cavendish Banana (Musa Acuminata, AAA) In-Vitro

In vitro propagation of Cavendish banana is an alternative to produce healthy, uniform and sufficient plant materials high qualities. Appropriate culture media formulation needed for shoot growth rooting stage. This experiment aimed study effects IAA organic supplements on in rooting. Explants were subjected MS medium with various supplements, a factorial arrangement completely randomized design. The first factor was concentrations (0; 0.5; 1 1.5 mg.L-1), the second types supplement (control, coconut water, potato extract extract). At 8 weeks after planting, root performance plantlets recorded. results showed that addition did not affect height. Addition homogenate resulted highest plantlets. Medium at mg.L-1 number roots. shoots produced + water extract. roots longest 0.5 homogenate. Keywords: Banana extract, Cavendish, Coconut IAA, Potato
