Effect of Growth Regulators and explant types on Callus Induction from Oroxylum Indicum (L.) Vent.

Esha Rami, Illa Patel

Abstract :

The present work is based on developing a protocol for callus induction in Oroxylum indicum (L.) Vent. Hypocotyl, apical bud and axillary bud excised from in vitro raised seedling were used as explant. Callus induction depended on the different concentration of plant growth regulators and types of explants in the callus inducing medium. Among the three explants used, hypocotyl was best for callus formation as compared to other explant. Highest efficiency of callus formation was observed in the medium containing different concentration of auxin and cytokinin. In vitro generated callus can be used as a source for phytochemical screening.
