- Abstract
Patchouli, also known as Pogostemon cablin Benth., is a plant that yields patchouli oil, a crucial essential oil used in the perfume industry. Stem cuttings are the conventional method of vegetative propagation for patchouli plants. Tissue culture techniques offer alternative approaches for vegetative propagation of better seeds. In vitro approaches for mass multiplication and plant breeding demand a callus culture that has been developed. The purpose of this study was to assess how leaf explants responded to callus formation in vitro caused by a combination of auxin and cytokinins. Leaf explants were cultivated on Murashige and Skoog medium for four weeks with the addition of NAA (0.5, 1, 2, and 3 mg/L) and BA/kinetin (0.5 mg/L). In the second week, the explants began to develop calluses; these calluses were friable, yellowish-green, and yellowish-white. Without NAA, medium was unable to produce callus. Callus development was controlled by the interaction of auxin and cytokinin. The NAA content was correlated with an increase in callus biomass. In comparison to the combination of BA and NAA, the combination of kinetin and NAA produced a larger callus fresh weight and percentage of callus formation. On MS medium enriched with 3 mg/L NAA + 0.5 mg/L kinetin, the maximum callusing was attained.
