Abstract

Sucrose serves as the primary carbon source in plant tissue culture, influencing cellular growth and development. The present study investigates the effect of varying sucrose concentrations on shoot regeneration in Stevia rebaudiana using nodal explants. Experiments were conducted on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with different sucrose levels. The highest shoot proliferation (19.6±0.452) and maximum shoot length (11.66±0.172 cm) were observed at 40 g/L sucrose concentration. The study highlights the significance of optimizing sucrose levels for enhanced in vitro propagation of Stevia rebaudiana.
