Efficient Shoot Organogenesis Using Leaf Disc and Nodal Explants of Passion Fruit (Passiflora edulis Sims) and Genetic Fidelity Assessment Using Sequence-Related Amplified Polymorphism (SRAP) Markers

Table 1

Effect of BAP and KIN on in vitro shoot induction from leaf disc explants of KPF 4 passion fruit variety after 8 weeks of culture.

Plant growth regulator (PGR)	Conc. (mg L^−1)	Percentage of explants with shoots	Mean number of shoots per explant	Mean number of explants with clusters of shoots
BAP	0.0	0.0	0.0 ± 0.0	0.0 ± 0.0
	1.0	58.0	6.06 ± 0.7	1.22 ± 0.1
	2.0	86.6	10.72 ± 0.9	1.38 ± 0.2
	3.0	50.0	4.5 ± 0.8	0.5 ± 0.1
BAP + KIN	2.0 + 0.5	88.8	11.44 ± 0.9	1.44 ± 0.2

Values represent mean ± standard error of 30 explants per treatment in three repeated experiments. Means with the same letter within a column are not significantly different at according to Tukey’s Honest significant difference test.
