In vitro somatic embryos multiplication of Eurycoma longifolia Jack using Temporary Immersion System RITA®

Temporary immersion system, Recipient for Automated Temporary Immersion® (RITA®), is one of the innovative systems that allow the production of large number of somatic embryos or plantlets via in vitro plant propagation. It has been widely used to avoid associated problems such as low multiplication...
