Assessment genetic variation and relationship of sago palm (Metroxylon sagu Rottb.) in Indonesia based on specific expression gene (Wx genes) markers
Starch production of sago palm based on physical and chemical properties were observed in a large variation in the previous study. The important gene markers used forthe assessment of the genetic variation and relationships which is related to the starch production is wx gene markers. The generating data based on the Wx gene markers were described in 8 alleles and 14 genotypes on sago...

Microtuberization of Ceropegia spiralis Wight and Ceropegia pusilla Wt. and Arn.
The ability of Ceropegia spiralis Wight and Ceropegia pusilla Wight and Arn. to form microtubers in vitro was studied, to conserve these endemic and endangered species. Murashige and Skoog’s (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations of cytokinins and auxins supported induction of two types of microtubers, that is, basal and aerial tubers. The nodal explants of C....
