Influence of Different Factors on Regeneration of Jute - Softcover

A sustainable improvement in jute productivity under less favourable environment can only be achieved with a constant flow of new genetic materials. The existing variability for constraints, like insect-pest and diseases, poor soil fertility, water stress, fiber quality, photo-insensivity etc. is a serious issue that needs to be addressed . It is evident that all the tissue culture techniques play a vital role in the enrichment of genetic variability. Among the phytohormone combination, MS+ 2 mg/l BAP + 0.5 mg/l IAA showed the highest shoot regeneration (60.66%). The variety CVE-3 response better than O-72 towards shoot regeneration at different pH level. Among the sucrose concentration 3% (30mg/l) showed the highest shoot regeneration (87.49%). Among the different concentration of vitamins x2 times (3.0mg/l) showed the highest shoot regeneration. Using different concentration of surfactant 0.1% surfactant showed the highest shoot regeneration (91.663%). In the NaCl experiment, among the three varieties CVE-3 was found highly responsive to shoot regeneration (97.22%) and 0.125, 0.25 and 0.50 (%) NaCl shows the better responsive to shoot regeneration.

Mrs. Hasina Begum has completed her MS in Plant Breeding from Sher-e- Bangla Agricultural University in Bangladesh. Since then she has worked in different project. Now she is doing her PhD in Plant Breeding and Plant Genetics University of the Philippines Los Banos and PhD Research scholar at IRRI. She is the author of several articles.
