Induction of variations in certain tropical ornamental plants and selection of variants for large scale cultivation
This study was undertaken to introduce morphological variations in Fagraea fragrans Roxb. (a way-side tree), Heliconiapsittacorum cv. 'Golden Torch'(a landscape herb) and Peperomia magnoliaefolia (Jacq.) Diert. (a potted herb) through in vitro mutagenesis. These species are commonly grown...
