Indole-3-Butyric Acid (IBA) Powder

Description:

Indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) powder is a plant growth regulator widely used to promote root formation in tissue culture applications.

Features:

• Easy to use
• Used as a supplement for tissue culture media such as MS medium
• Stimulates adventitious root development and callus formation
• Often applied together with other hormones to support optimal plant growth and development

Preparation guide:
Procedure for preparing tissue culture medium using IBA:

• Prepare liquid tissue medium using MS, DKW, or another medium as required by the plant
• Add sugar according to medium volume (typically 30 g per liter), 1 ml/liter PPM, and 3–4 g gellan gum or 6–8 g agar per liter
• Add the required amount of plant hormone (IBA)
• Sterilize the medium in an autoclave at 121 °C for 20 minutes at 15 psi

Usage:

• Stimulation of adventitious root development and callus formation
• Inclusion in micropropagation media to facilitate seedling root formation
• Application on graft unions to accelerate callus formation and successful graft maturation
• Support for germination of certain seeds requiring dormancy breaking
