A group of students have carried out an experiment to investigate the relationship between the amount of growth hormone BAP in the culture medium and the growth of shoot.They have supplemented the medium with 4 different concentration of growth hormone which is (1 mg/L ,2 mg/L BAP,3 mg/L 4 mg/L) of BAP.According to the result after eight weeks, BAP at 2 mg/L had given better response with respect to shoot induction, shoot multiplication, length of shoot, and number of leaves per explants when compare with other amount of BAP.
