In vitro regeneration of bakawali (Epiphyllum oxypetalum) / Asmah Awal … [et al.]
Being a tropical country with a large portion of rainforests, Malaysia is blessed by having various types of exotic plants and herbs. Among those precious species is bakawali which is scientifically known as Epiphyllum oxypetalum. Bakawali belongs to Cactacea family and is also commonly known as ric...
