Abstract

Nodal and apical segments were immerged in MS medium with six different concentrations of benzilaminopurine (BAP). The nodal segments presented greater ability for shoot production as compared to the apical segments. The percentage of shoots with 1.0 cm or higher was attained with BAP 0.5 mg/1 using nodal segments. Both types of explants were very sensitive to high BAP levels and were damaged during growth and development.
