Abstract
Effect of cytokinis on in vitro propagation of Uapaca kirkiana. The effect of five different types of cytokinins namely N superscript 6-benzyladenine (BA) Kinetin N superscript 6-(2-isopentenyl) adenine (2iP) thidiazuron (TDZ) and zeatin on in vitro propagation of Uapaca kirkiana was studied using woody plant medium (WPM). Good quality shoots (with a mean of 3.4 shoots per explant) were regenerated on the WPM supplemented with 0.5 miu M BA. The suitability of different cytokinins for in vitro propagation of Uapaca kirkinana was established in the order of BA more than TDZ more than 2iP more than kinetin more than zeatin. On TDZ-supplemented medium stunted shoots with comparatively thicker leaves were regenerated. Shoots produced on WPM supplemented with BA rooted easily. In vitro regenerated plantlets were established under ex vitro conditions.
