| Summary: | Berangan Banana (Musa paradisiaca )was known to be one of the most commonly grown fruit crop in malaysia. Through in-vitro culture technique, the mass propagation of this cultivar has been a serious problem of high mortality due to browning of explants. The aims of this research was to optimize both natural and synthetic antioxidant on culture medium of Musa paradicasa explants. In this research project , experiments was conducted using Musa sp as explants and two types of antioxidant were applied into the culture medium to study the effect of both synthetic and natural antioxidant application for browning inhibition. |
