Effects of LED light on Acacia melanoxylon bud proliferation in vitro and root growth ex vitro

This study examines the effects of light emitting diodes (LEDs) on tissue culture proliferation of Acacia melanoxylon plantlets among five different clones (FM 1 , FM 2 , FM 4 , FM 5 , and FM 10 ). Shoot bud apex cuttings were transplanted onto Murashige and Skoog basal medium containing 0.1 mg L -1 6-benzyladenine and 0.5 mg L -1 naphthalene acetic acid and cultured in vitro for 40 days. Root growth was studied under different light intensities...
