Abstract

A protocol was developed for organogenesis from immature leaflet explants derived from mature seeds of peanut. Immature leaflets pre-incubated on MS medium supplemented with 13.32 μM BAP + 4.95 μM NAA for 7 days, turned green and enlarged. The enlarged green leaflets produced multiple shoot buds after 1–2 cycles of sub-culture on MS medium supplemented with 13.32 μM BAP. Three cycles of shoot buds on the elongation medium (13.32 μM BAP) produced 6.17 ± 0.47 elongated shoots per explant. The shoot bud formation was genotype independent. All elongated shoots rooted on the medium containing 4.95 μM NAA. The complete protocol gave efficient (>81%) direct organogenesis, leading to the development of plantlets within 4 months.
