Micropropagation of Hermaphrodite Papayas: Increased Root Induction and Plant Survival during Acclimatization

In Hawaii, the commercial papaya industry is based on cultivars that segregate as females or hermaphrodites. Multiple seedlings are planted and then thinned at flowering to single hermaphrodites at each site. The aim of this study was to increase propagation efficiency by improving our procedure for...
