Micropropagation of Acacia Auriculiformis A. Cunn Ex Benth from Different Explant Sources

Acacia auriculiformis is one of the multipurpose tree species under Leguminoceae family which has the capability to fix nitrogen from soil and rehabilitate the land. The wood properties are widely known to be suitable for pulp and paper making and can contribute as raw materials for pulp and pape...
