| Summary: | Aquatic plants become popular and important as ornamental in water garden as well as in aquarium. Aglaonema simplex, an aquatic plant native to Malaysia, is commonly known as Malayan Sword or Borneo Sword which has reddish leaves when young, and mid to dark green when mature. Plant regeneration from rhizome and callus culture, and genetic transformation using particle bombardment were developed for this plant. The purpose of this study is to add value on this plant for enhancing the market and aesthetic value. |
