Abstract
Micropropagation of bamboo through tissue culture can increase the number of plants for rapid utilization. Phai Bong Yai is utilized for consumption and construction support for accommodation. The aim of this study was to investigate the germination and growth of Phai Bong Yai [Dendrocalamus brandisii (Munro) Kurz.] on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of BA (0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5 and 2.0 mg/L) and NAA (0, 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L). The results showed that MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L NAA trended to give the highest germination percentage (91.67 %). MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/L BA had the highest number of shoots (4.46). The highest root length (8.75 cm) was found on MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L NAA. The highest shoot length, root length, leaf length and leaf width were observed on MS medium without plant growth regulators.
