Fragnance Formation in Aquilaria spp. Shoot Culture Induced by Acremonium sp.

Abstract

In this research, fragnance formation in the shoot culture of three clones of Aquilaria malaccensis (Amal, Ama7 and Ama13) and four clones of A. microcarpa (Ami5, Ami8, Ami16 and P6) as a response towards infection of four isolates of Acremonium sp. (F,G,L, and M) were studied using dual culture methods in three different concentrations of a modified Murashige-Skoog (MSmod) media (50, 75 and 100%). The result indicated that Acremonium F and M induced the formation of fragrance.
