(Citrullus lanatus Thumb.)]]>SultanaR.S. BariM.A. RahmanM.H. RahmanM.M. SiddiqueN.A. KhatunN. 2200432Plantlets regeneration were achieved in callus culture of leaf segments from
five days old field grown seedlings of Citrulus lanatus Thumb. Callus
induction and plant regeneration at various frequencies were observed using
different concentrations and combinations of growth regulators. The highest
percentage of callus induction was observed in MS medium supplemented with 2.5
mg L-1 2, 4-D. After transfer of this callus on MS medium supplemented
with 1.0 mg L-1 BA+0.2 mg L-1 NAA induce adventitious
shoots and developed into plant by further subculture in the same medium. NAA
(0.1 mg L-1) was found effective in the production of root. Plantlets
were acclimatized and subsequently transferred to the field. Survival of the
plantlets under ex vitro condition was 80%.]]>Jelaska, S.,197431257261Chee, P.P.,199025792793Gambley, R.L. and W.A.
