Abstract

One of the obstacles in the cultivation of weevil wort (Curculigo latifolia) is its seed recalcitrance and high variability among its accessions. Plant tissue culture is an alternative technology to provide high-quality C. latifolia seeds. This study aims to determine the effect of LED lighting and plant growth regulators (PGRs) on the organogenesis of weevil-wort (C. latifolia) in vitro. Seeds of C. latifolia were planted in the Murashige & Skoog (MS0) media; MS supplemented with IBA (1 mg L-1) and BAP (2 mg L-1); and BAP alone (2 mg L-1). All culture media were then treated with different types of LED light: red, blue, and white light. Our results showed that 100% of seeds placed on the MS0 media were able to germinate in all types of LED light treatment. About 67% of seeds grown in the MS supplemented with IBA+BAP and treated with blue light were also able to develop shoots. We noticed that treatment on MS with BAP alone and LED red light showed no shoot-regenerated seed. The best performance on shoot height was obtained in the MS0 media treated with all LED light, which ranges from 1.5 - 1.87 cm. Meanwhile, the lowest shoot height of C. latifolia was obtained when the seeds were placed on MS with BAP alone (2 mg L-1).
