IHSAN ILAHI, ROBINA SAMI AND MUSSARAT JABEEN
Abstract
Mature embryos, excised from the soaked peanut seeds, when cultured on MS medium supplemented with BA and 2,4-0 each @ 0.5 mg/I induced, callus. Regeneration occurred when this callus was subcultured on to MS containing BA and kin each @ 1.0 mg/I. Similarly, development of callus followed by regeneration was noticed in mature embryos in MS medium containing 0.5 mg/l kin and 1.5 mg/l NAA. Direct regeneration was also observed on MS containing 1.0 mgll each of BA and kin. All the regenerated shoots when transferred to the rooting medium (1/2 MS) supplemented with 0.1 mg/I NAA showed development of root.
