Abstract

Decline in plant diversity can be ascribed to a multitude of variables encompassing human activities, climate change and exploitation of natural resources. The present study is aimed to develop robust in vitro regeneration protocol of unexplored indigenous Musa varieties (Musa acuminata var. hondakol, Musa paradisica var. sanikol, Musa paradisica var. kashkol, and Musa acuminata var. hazari) and to analyze their phylogenetic relationship. DNA barcoding using Internal Transcribed Spacer1 (ITS1) markers facilitated the molecular analysis and sequence alignment of these Musa species, which illustrated their genetic relationships. DNA sequences were submitted to the NCBI and received accession numbers. 15 days old suckers were initiated on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations of phytohormones, adjuvants etc. The highest number of shoots were obtained in 6th subculturing cycle thereafter each in vitro shoot of Musa acuminata var. hazari, Musa paradisica var. kashkol, Musa paradisica var. sanikol, and Musa acuminata var. hondakol were inoculated in 1/4th MS medium supplemented with 2 mgL-1 indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) and 1 mgL-1 BAP resulted in successful rooting of 43%, 45%, 60%, and 33% respectively. The above finding showed that development effective regeneration protocol of all four varieties which can be further exploited for large scale propagation of uniform and disease-free banana plantlets.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Types of explants, number of subcultures, plant growth regulators, and regeneration pathway are responsible for somaclonal variation.

    “The types of explants, the number of subcultures, plant growth regulators, and the regeneration pathway are responsible for somaclonal variation [31][32][33][34].”

    From Somaclonal Variation and Clonal Fidelity in Commercial Micropropagation: Challenges and Perspectives (2025) · cites this paper as [33]

    The Results section links subculture cycles and growth regulators to shoot regeneration, not to somaclonal variation. A search for somaclonal variation, genetic stability, explant type, and regeneration pathway found no passage in our copy that links the claimed factors to somaclonal variation; the term appears in a reference title only. Page numbers were not available. (LLM, conf=0.75)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
