An Efficient Protocol for Callus Induction in <i>Aquilaria malaccensis</i> Lam. Using Leaf Explants at Varied Concentrations of Sucrose

Abstract: Aquilaria malaccensis La m. (Family: Thy melaeaceae), co mmonly known as agarwood, eagle wood or Gaharu is a co mmercially important tree species of northeast India. The Aquilaria tree is categorised as critically endangered in Ind ia. This species is being continuously exploited due to its precious heartwood which is the source of expensive agar oil used in the production of high grade perfu mes as well as in trad itional medicines. The main aim of this study was to establish a speedy callus production protoc… Show more

“…Higher fresh weight indicates the higher amount of biomass cell in the callus. There were so many similar results have been reported [29], [44], [45]. Callus cultures were extremely important in plant biotechnology.…”

“…Similar wounding is also common in upper Assam, especially among traditional growers (Saikia et al 2012). Nevertheless, such efforts do not yield highly productive results and the agarwood produced is of inferior quality (Persoon 2007).…”

“…Artificial wounding is believed to stimulate oleoresin formation in agarwood (Saikia et al 2012). Infection by fungi is also considered to be associated with resin formation in agar trees (Oldfield et al 1998).…”

“…IAA dan IBA merupakan auksin alami yang disintesis oleh tumbuhan, efektif untuk inisiasi akar adventif, tetapi tidak terlalu efektif untuk pembentukan kalus, sedangkan 2,4-D yang merupakan auksin sintetik yang berfungsi sebaliknya, memiliki pengaruh kuat dalam membentuk kalus (George, 1993). Penggunaan kombinasi auksin dan sitokinin sangat penting dalam pembentukan kalus gaharu, dimana adanya sitokinin dengan konsentrasi yang lebih tinggi dapat memicu pembelahan sel (Ito et al, 2005;Qi et al, 2005;Saikia et al, 2012;Daud, 2013;Khairunisa, 2013;Zalikha, 2013;Jayaraman et al, 2014). Kombinasi yang terbaik untuk menginduksi kalus A. crassna diperoleh pada medium MS dengan penambahan 10 -6 M 2,4-D dan 10 -6 M BA (Okudera and Ito, 2009), sedangkan kombinasi 2 mg/L 2,4-D dan 0,1 mg/L kinetin dapat menginduksi kalus dari daun A. malaccensis hingga 70-73% dengan biomassa yang tinggi dan tumbuh cepat (Saikia et al, 2013).…”
