Abstract

Alocasia alba Schott (keladi) is a popular ornamental plant valued for its unique morphology. The growing demand for this species presents opportunities for diversification through genetic improvements. This study aimed to investigate the most effective application technique to enhance the genetic diversity of Alocasia alba Schott, thereby improving its commercial value. The method used was a Randomized Complete Block Design. The first factor was streptomycin sulfate concentration (0, 500, 1000, and 1500 ppm). The second factor was soaking duration (3, 4, and 5 d). The observed parameters included the ability of the corms to produce shoots, the number of shoots and leaves, and leaf morphological traits such as shape, lamina color, and petiole color. Data were analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively using two-way ANOVA, followed by Duncan's Multiple Range Test (DMRT). The results showed a significant decrease in the ability of corms to produce shoots, the number of shoots, and the number of leaves, along with observable variations in leaf lamina color among the treatments.
