| Abstract | The objective of the study on the effects of colchicine in Ficus genus. was to determine the optimal colchicine concentration for the growth of Ficus genus. and mutation induction.The experiment used randomized complete block design (RCBD) at the Thailand Institute of Scientific and Technological Research (TISTR) consisting of the concentration level of colchicine, 6 treatments were 0, 0.5, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5 g/l, by dropping colchicine on the tip of 2 types of Ficusses, namely Ficus microcarpaL.f. 'Sai TISTR 1' and Ficus microcarpaL.f. The growth was recorded for 2 months. It found that colchicine concentrations at 1.5g/l had the greatest influence on the growth of Ficus microcarpaL.f. 'Sai TISTR 1' in terms of canopy width, plant height, number of shoots, leaf length, and leaf width with an average of 26.46 cm., 42.00 cm., 17.26 tips, 7.44 cm., 3.30 cm., respectively. The influence of colchicine on the growth of Ficus microcarpaL.f. found that the control group, which did not drop colchicine, had the greatest canopy width with an average of 17.06 cm. and colchicine concentrations at 0.5 g/l had the greatest influence onthe stem of Ficus microcarpaL.f. with an average of 10.90 cm. The concentration of colchicine at 2.5 g/l resulted in the highest number of shoots with an average of 15.00 shoots, while the length and width of the leaves were not statistically different. Moreover, colchicine used at all concentrations did notaffect the transformation characteristics of Ficus microcarpaL.f. 'Sai TISTR 1' and Ficus microcarpaL.f |
