Abstract
An experiment was carried out to induce somatic embryogenesis from petiole explants of papaya cultivar Eksotika using different concentrations and combinations of 2.4-D and BAP. Petiole explants were cultured on modified MS medium with half-strength macro nutrients and supplemented with 500 mgL- glutamine 0.2 phytagel and 1.0 2.5 5.0 and 7.5 mgL- 2 4-D in combination with 0 0.001 0.005 and 0.010 mgL- BAP. Treatment containing 7.5 mgL- 2 4-D without BAP produced the highest percentage of callus formation 89. Highest percentage of somatic embryo formation 20 occurred in treatment containing 5.0 mgL- 2 4-D. In this treatment the mean number of somatic embryos produced per explant was 12.
