Abstract

Different explants of Tecomella undulata (Sm.) Seem. cultured on modified MS media gave significant differences for shoot regeneration and root differentiation. Plantlets were successfully developed using axillary bud and cotyledon as explants. There was no shoot formation from leaf explants. Maximum multiple shoots from axillary buds and cotyledons were obtained on medium containing MS major salts with BAP 4.0 mg/l + IAA 0.1 mg/l and BAP 5.0 mg/l + NAA 0.5 mg/l, respectively. Healthy roots developed from two step procedure. Isolated shoots were rooted by culturing on half strength MS liquid medium having IBA 2.5 mg/l for 48 hrs and then transferring to hormone free half strength solid MS medium. An initial dark period for 5-7 days favoured root induction. About 55 percent of in-vitro produced shoots were rooted.
