Abstract
|
|
|
|
Direct regeneration of shoots and roots through juvenile explants has been achieved in Tribulus terrestris. Cotyledonary leaves along with epicotyl segment from young seedlings were cultured on MS medium containing various concentrations of auxin with cytokinin and glutamine. A combination of 0.2 ㎎L^-1 NAA, 0.5 ㎎L^-1 BAP and 50 ㎎L^-1 glutamine induced high frequency of shoot and root differentiation in 10 weeks. The callus also could be induced on the above medium from the cut end of radical segments. Morphogenic response such as per cent shoot and root differentiation was recorded at regular intervals.
