In the present investigation, nodal and internodal explants were employed for callus induction and axillary shoot formation. Maximum callus induction frequency was found on MS medium fortified with 2,4-D (1.0 mg/L) along with NAA (1.0 mg/L) and BAP (0.5 mg/L). However, individual effects of 2,4-D or NAA with BAP showed least callus induction. The higher concentrations of 2,4-D and BAP decreased the response of explants. However, maximum axillary shoot formation was observed on MS medium adjuvanted with BAP (2.0 mg/L) and NAA (0.5 mg/L).</p>}, journal={Current Botany}, author={Nabi, Neelofer and Singh, Seema and Saffeullah, Peer}, year={2020}, month={Sep.}, pages={148–151} }
