Plant regeneration from cultured hypocotyl explants of diploid and tetraploid Solanum khasianum clarke.

Plant regeneration through shoot bud formation was induced in cultured hypocotyl explants of diploid and tetraploid varieties of Solanum khasianum. Optimum regeneration of multiple shoot buds accompanied by rooting occurred on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with IAA (1 mg/1) and kinetin or benzyladenine (1 mg/1). Plantlets obtained in vitro were successfully established in soil.
