Yes BAP and BA are the same. Yes you can use BAP even it is written as BA because they have just added purine derivative in it

BA and BAP and commonly used interchangeably. However, journals typically require that abbreviations be defined. If a paper does not define the abbreviations, then I would assume that BA and BAP are the same.

Thanks for raising this question and providing the attached paper.

Yes. BA (6-benzyladenine) or BAP(6-benzylamino purine) are same.

Yes you can. The two abbreviation BA and BAP describe the exact same cytokinin, 6-benzyladenine or 6-benzylamino purine.
