Abstract: Improved Celeste is one of the common types of fig and potential to be cultivated in Indonesia. This research aimed to study the effect of several combinations of plant growth regulators on shoot induction of fig var. Improved Celeste. The research was conducted at Tissue Culture Laboratory, Department of Food Crops and Horticulture, Gedung Johor, North Sumatra, Medan. The research using a non-factorial Completely Randomized Design (CRD) with 4 treatments and 6 replications. The treatment of plant growth regulators (PGR) consisted of 4 levels, namely, MS media+ 0.5 BAP, MS media + 1 BAP, MS media + 0.5 BAP + 0.1 IBA, and MS media + 2 BAP + 0.2 IBA. The results showed that the best plant growth regulators in promoting shoot formation at the induction stage of fig var. Improved Celeste is MS media + 2 BAP + 0.2 IBA.
