Effect of banana peels (Musa Paradisiaca cv Awak) as growth promoting substance in Phalaenopsis Amabilis orchid in vitro culture

Natural additives from agriculture waste remain largely untapped in enhancing germination, micropropagation, and growth of many orchids, especially Phalaenopsis amabilis species that are highly demanded. Interestingly total phytochemical compounds, especially antioxidants, had been discovered abunda...
