Abstract

Sheath rolls of three sugarcane cultivars (BL-4, Gulabi-95 and NIA-2004) were grown
for callus induction and subsequent in vitro plant regeneration on basic medium
containing Murashige and Skoog (MS) supplementd with different concentrations of 2, 4-
D for callus induction. Media comprised of MS+BAP and MS+NAA+Kin with various
concentrations for shoot induction and root induction respectively. Maximum callus was
obtained with MS+5.0 mg/L 2,4-D. Shoot induction was best at MS+2.0 mg/L BAP and
best root induction was observed at MS+NAA at 2.0 mg/l + 1.25 mg/L Kinetin.
