ABSTRACT:

For in vitro propagation in Catharanthus roseus, the plant growth regulators BAP (cytokinin) and NAA (Auxin) were experimented in association with MS media. The amalgamation of BAP (0.5 mg/l) and NAA (1.0 mg/l) on MS basal evinced amplified exalted synergism with 100% cultured explants response and consequent morphogenesis.

KEYWORDS: 6-Benzyladenine (BAP); Catharanthus roseus; MS medium; Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA).
