The Optimization of Medium Conditions and Auxins in the Induction of Adventitious Roots of Pokeweed (Phytolacca americana L.) and Their Phytochemical Constituents

Figure 1

Adventitious root induction from pokeweed leaf explants cultured on semisolid and liquid media containing NAA and IBA: (a) semisolid culture with 2 mg/L NAA; (b) leaf explants with adventitious roots from semisolid culture with 1 mg/L NAA; (c) semisolid culture with 1 mg/L IBA; (d) leaf explant with adventitious roots from semisolid culture with 1 mg/L IBA; (e) liquid culture with 0.5 mg/L NAA; (f) leaf explant with adventitious roots from liquid culture with 1 mg/L NAA; (g) liquid culture with 1 mg/L IBA; (h) leaf explant with adventitious roots from liquid culture with 1 mg/L IBA (yellow arrow = adventitious root; white arrow = lateral root; arrow head = root hair; all scales = 1 cm).
