Abstract

Multiple shoots were induced from shoot tip explants of an in vitro grown seven days old seedling of Cicer arietinum on MS medium supplemented with BAP, Kn, IAA, IBA and NAA in different concentration and combinations. Maximum number of shoots 13-24 were obtained on a medium fortified with BAP (2.0 mg/) in combination with NAA (0.5 mg/I).  Isolated shoots were rooted in a basal medium containing IBA (2 mg/l) along with BAP (0.5 mg/l).  Further studies are in progress for plantletproduction and their subsequent acclimatization.

Keywords: Shoot tip, Multiple shoot, Cicer arietinum L.
