2. INTRODUCTION
According to Anim (2013), Malaysia policies on fruit industry is to
increase the production of fruits to meet local demand, for industrial
production and also for export. It is also to increase farmer’s income
and for supply the food supplement for Malaysia citizen. The next
policies is to improve the fruit industries that are competitive based
on the popular fruit demand for international marketing either for fresh
product or processed product and to ensure the fruits supply is
sufficient at the reasonable price.
Plant propagation is the technique to create and develop new
plants either through sexual (seeds) or asexual propagation
(cutting, grafting and tissue culture). However, propagation through
sexual does not ensure the true-to-the type plant reproduction (Iyer
and Degani, 1997). As an alternative, the researchers have
developed new way to propagate plant through tissue culture method
since 1900 centuries (Herren, 2005).
3. Problem Statement
-Carbon sources has relation in browning
occurrence.
-Tissue browning occurs when the explants are
injured and release the chemical called phenols and
directly associated with hydrocarbon group to form
phenolic compound.
-Hence, it is necessary to evaluate the germination
of callus growth of two different part of explants at
different concentration of sucrose as the carbon
source.
5. LITERATURE REVIEW
Harumanis variety (MR128)
Harumanis variety is categorized as seasonal crop because
this clone produces inflorescences due to drought season
only and also with water irrigation requirement. This clone is
very popular in North area of peninsular Malaysia especially
in Kedah and Perlis because the quality of fruit and it
production are high (Zainal and Malik, 1996). This variety is
very commercial for economy production in Malaysia and has
been exported into Japan (FAMA, 2013).
To ensure the supply of Harumanis mango is
continuously, the application of biotechnology should be
carried out. Thus, micro propagation (tissue culture) is a
technique that can be practiced on mango crop which can
propagate more plantlets and also maintain the true variety
from mother plant.
6. Tissue culture method
Tissue culture method
(Harry, 1994)
A technique of micropropagation
by using explants such as plant
protoplast, cells tissue and plant
parts to produce more seedlings
under aseptic condition
Tissue culture method
(Singh, 2011),
Each plant cell has an entire genetic
coding in all plant part whereas it
capable to grow new plant. There are
also required several conditions that
influence cell growth such as plant
hormones, types of explants, light
intensity, temperature and nutrient
supplement.
7. Browning in tissue culture
Browning in tissue culture
(Banerjee et al. , 1996)
(Murata et al. , 2001)
(Wu and Lin, 2002)
The symptom of browning can be seen
after the oxidation process occurs with
phenolic compound. The brown colors
are appearing on those materials
Browning in tissue culture
(Khosroushahi, 2011)
the controlled supplement of carbon
sources shows the different result of
browning on the culture media
Browning in tissue culture
(Kishiko et al., 2004)
the several amyloplast containing 3-5
starch grains were observed at around of
the cell nucleus, whereas the amyloplast
could be taken into tonoplast showing in
browning in the aged cells. These results
prove that the browning phenomenon may
be related to the metabolism of
carbohydrates within the cultural cells.
8. The role in reducing carbon
sources
The role in reducing
carbon sources
(Khosroushahi, et al.
2011)
•There are three different of carbon
sources with different concentration
(sucrose, glucose and fructose) result
on the different of browning intensity
•The browning phenomenon can be
controlled through application of the
growth media with 5g/L of sucrose,
5g/L of glucose and 10g/L for
fructose. But, for the best growth
media to increase the paclitaxel
production was in the medium
contained of 10g/L glucose, 5g/L
sucrose and 5g/L fructose
9. METHODOLOGY
There are two processes involved in media preparation which are
sterilization and preparation of media.
STERILIZATION
Chemical that are needed will be ethanol, Clorox and hypochlorite
(NaOCl2).
PREPARATION OF MEDIA
The different concentration of sucrose (0g/L, 10g/L, 20g/L, 30g/L
and 40g/L) as the carbon sources that will be added in the stock
solutions.
Other chemical substances that will be used are agar, sodium
hydroxide (NaOH) or hydrochloric acid (HCl) that will be applied
during pH adjustment process, inorganic salt and plant growth
regulator such as Kinetin (Kn), Indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and
polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP).
14. Sterilization of equipments
•Apparatus that will be used are petri dish, glass beakers,
scissors, scalpels, forceps, and filter paper
•All the apparatus will be wrapped with aluminum foil before it
being autoclaved to disinfect bacteria.
•Distilled water will kept in Schott bottle and also autoclaved
•Autoclaved at 120ºC, 118 kPa steam pressure for 20 minutes
•Laminar Air Flow surface is wiped before to do tissue culture by
using 70 % of ethanol for 10 minutes and the ultraviolet (UV) light
will turn on for 15 minutes.
17. Media preparation
5000ml

distilled water will
be kept into 10
Schott bottles
7g/L

agar
Gelrite will be
added into the
solution
Sterilize
it

minutes
Prepare
the
different
concentration
of
sucrose
(0g/L, 10g/L, 20g/L,
30g/L and 40g/L)
pH media will be
adjusted to 5.8 by
using 1M of Sodium
hydroxide (NaOH) or
1M of (Hydrochloric
acid) HCl.
The addition of plant
growth
regulator
(1.0mg/L of IAA +
3.0mg/L of Kn + 1.0% of
PVP) in MS medium
(look at composition of
MS medium)
The volume of
medium will be
added with distilled
water to reach 1
liter solution
The medium solution will be
poured into petri dish sterile
container after it have been
cooled about 45oC in Laminar Air
Flow
18. Surface sterilization
The plant material will be washed in running tap water for 2 hours
Soaked into Decon90 for 5 minutes and then rinse 5 times with sterile distilled water
Immersed into 0.2% of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) for 1 hour and soaked again about 30 minutes
The explants washed again for 5 times with sterile distilled water and treated with 80% ethanol for 10
minutes
Wash the explants for 5 times with sterile distilled water and then the explants will be treated with 80%
Clorox and tween20 for 20 minutes
Rinsed 5 times with distilled water
Plant materials will be dried on the autoclaved filter paper
Explants will be cut bisected symmetrical (1cm x 1cm) to obtain equal size
All process will be carried out in Laminar Air Flow Hood.
