The objective was to assess the font and concentration's effect of cytokinin and salt composition, present in the medium of cultivation, on in vitro multiplication of the rootstock 'Tsukuba 1' (Prunus persica L.). Explants cultivated in QL/MS medium enriched with 2.0 mg/L of BAP showed more shoot formation and growth. However, it is necessary to transfer the explants to culture medium with reduced BAP concentration (0.5 mg/L), so that shoots may obtain the properly size for the rooting phase.
