Abstract

Plant tissue culture provides a rapid method for producing disease free and genetically identical plant material. Plant growth regulators (PGRs), particularly cytokinins such as 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), play an important role in in vitro morphogenesis. Besides PGRs, nanoparticles have recently emerged as promising supplements for enhancing plant growth and antioxidant defense mechanism. The pres…
