In vitro Storage Delays the Maturation of African Mahogany (Khaya senegalensis) Clones [PDF]
Journal of Plant Sciences, 2013 This study determined whether in vitro storage of Khaya senegalensis clones could delay their maturation and increase their capacity for adventitious rooting. Forestry trees display the desired traits of high adventitious rooting, rapid stem growth and long internodes when they are propagated from juvenile rather than mature explants.
