 ABSTRACT

Leaf explant and nodal segment explants of guggul were placed on Murashige and Skoog Medium, supplemented with different concentration of cytokinins and auxins alone or in combination for callus induction. In leaf explants maximum callus induction was observed on a medium containing 2.0 mg/l 2, 4-D with 100 per cent frequency followed by 5.0 mg/l Kn+0.5 mg/l NAA with 100 per cent frequency. Whereas, maximum callus induction from nodal segment explant was observed on a medium containing 5.0 mg/l BAP+5.0 mg/l NAA with 100 per cent frequency. Key words: Guggul, Callus induction, Tissue culture, In vitro.
