Axillary bud explants when cultured on MS medium supplemented with bavistin (100 mg/l) maximum number of shoots (4.21 ± 0.83) were observed. In a separate experiment, bavistin along with growth regulators such as BAP and TDZ was added to MS medium containing sucrose (3%). Maximum number of shoots was obtained (5.55 ± 0.28) in MS medium supplemented with bavistin (100 mg/l) and BAP (2.0 mg/l). Cefotoxime and kanamycin (10-150 μM/L) were added to MS medium supplemented with BAP (2.0 mg/l) with sucrose (3%) having shown the maximum shoot regeneration (4.38 ± 0.45 and 3.4 ± 0.48) at 80 μM/L and 50 μM/L respectively. Similarly the regeneration medium was supplemented with (5.0-100 μM/L) of STS. Maximum number of shoots (4.75 ± 0.43) was seen with 40 μM/L. These plantlets were further maintained for root emergence on a rooting medium supplemented with growth regulators such as (0.5-2.0 mg/l) IAA, IBA and NAA. In MS medium supplemented with IBA (1.0 mg/l), maximum number of roots (24.3 ± 0.31) was seen with 100% regeneration. The rooted plants were acclimatized and transferred to field plots with (95%) of plant surviving in the field.展开更多
