ABSTRACT

Various concentrations of BAP were used in order to find out the optimum concentration of this growth substance for callus production as well as for shoot regeneration in Bunium persicum. The optimum concentration of BAP for callus production was BAP 1mg/l, in terms of average number of days taken for callus production (6 days), amount of callus produced and percent culture response (100%). However, BAP at a concentrationof 4 mg/l was found optimum for shoot regeneration.
