Abstract: | Protocorm like bodies (PLBs), callus and shoot buds developed in culture from in vitro raised foliar explants of Cleisostoma racimeferum. Among the different basal media, better result was obtained on MS medium containing sucrose (3%) and BA (2 microM) with approximately 80% frequency after 40 days of culture. Young leaves (15 week old) produced better PLBs. Whole leaf placed vertically upside-up orientation can regenerate PLBs and shoot buds (80%). PLBs and shoot buds formed on entire surface of the leaves. Cultures on BA and NAA (2 and 2 microM respectively in combination) stimulated callus mediated regeneration (68%). The rooted plantlets regenerated within 8-10 week from PLBs and shoot buds on MS medium containing IAA and kinetin (2 microM each in combination). BA containing medium triggered multiple shoot bud formation, while NAA alone or in combination with other growth regulators was inhibitory. Incorporation of activated charcoal (0.01%) in the medium stimulated formation of repetitive PLBs and multiple shoot buds. Rooted plants were ready for harvest after 20-22 week of initiation of culture. About 65% of the potted plants survived after 3 months in the poly house. |
