Micropropagation and determination of essential oil components and antimicrobial activities of temu hitam (Curcuma aeruginosa roxb.)
Published 2015“…The major constraints in the cultivation of C. aeruginosa are the low rate of propagation, has a period of dormancy, commercially exploited and poor flowering and seed set. Vegetative propagation through underground rhizomes often results in fungal disease that can influence the quality and quantity of essential oils within the plants. …”
