| Abstract | ||||
| Culantro is an aromatic plant. which is used as condiment and medicinal plant. A procedure for shoe; regeneration (rom leaf blade, pedicle and shoot tip explants, is described. Leaf blade, pedicle and shool tip explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) alone or supplernentert with 0,5,1,2,3,4,5,6 mgll benzyladenine (SA) with 0.5 mgll naphlhaleneacetic acid (NAA). Shoot regeneration from the proximal third section of leaf blade was higher than shoot regeneration from the middle and distal sections. Shoot regeneration, shoot length and roots number were innuenced by SA and NAA concentrations. Shoot regeneration from quartered shoot tip was higher than shoot regeneration from decapitated or intact shoot tip. Produced shoots were transferred into root- induction medium and rooted shoots were successfully established in soil. Abbreviations: SA, benzyladenine; MS, Murashige & Skoog's (1962) medium; NAA • naphthaleneacetic acid. | ||||
