| Summary: | Abelmoschusesculentus L., belongs to the Malvaceae family is one of the important vegetable crop in the world. This study was carried out at the Tissue Culture Laboratory, Department of Agriculture Technology, Faculty of Agriculture, Universiti Putra Malaysia, Serdang, Selangor. The aim of the experiment is to determine the effect of different concentration of kinetin on axillary shoot proliferation of F1 hybrid green okra. The experiment was designed using Randomized Complete Block Design (RCBD). In the experiment, shoot tips of the germinated F1 hybrid green okra were cultured in medium containing 5 different concentration of kinetin ( 0.0, 1.0.2.5,5.0 and 10.0 mg/L). It was observed that a high percentage of explants regenerating shoot occurred ranging from 60% to 90% within the kinetin concentration tested. However, no significant difference was observed between all the kinetin treatment tested compared with the control treatment. |
