Item Evaluación de fitohormona para la división celular in vitro de Myrciantes rhopaloides(Universidad Técnica de Ambato. Facultad de Ciencia e Ingeniería en Alimentos y Biotecnología. Carrera de Biotecnología, 2025-02) Medina Medina, Jorge Antonio; De la Torre Olvera, Helena MaritzaMyrcianthes rhopaloides commonly known as Black Arrayan is an endemic species of Ecuador, which has been used intensively due to the properties and quality of its wood, being of great value for the timber industry, causing the population of this species to be reduced. The objective of this research is to evaluate the phytohormone indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) for in vitro cell division by means of in vitro micropropagation, developing organogenesis in the form of leaves and shoots from explants, from the application of an in vitro culture protocol for disinfection in order to obtain viable explants and a variation of four treatments with Gamborg B5 medium; three of which will present phytohormone in different concentrations of 0,5; 1 and 1,5 milligrams per liter of phytohormone and one treatment as a negative control without the presence of phytohormone. As a result of the disinfection, a moderate percentage of viable explants was obtained, where the contamination rate was due to the presence of an endophytic fungus. In the evaluation of the phytohormone treatments, treatment three with a 1,5 percent concentration of indole-3-acetic acid showed a response of leaf and shoot formation in the third week after the start of the experiment, maintaining a gradual increase during the 7 weeks that the explants were incubated.
