Abstract

Immature inflorescences of Amaranthus paniculatus were used as explants for in vitro culture studies. When placed on a medium supplemented with 3-6 mg/l kinetin, explants developed into secondary inflorescences. Leaves and shoots developed following culture of inflorescence tissue on media containing 8-15 mg/l kinetin or 5-10 mg/l BAP. These shoots when subcultured on MS medium supplemented with 12 mg/l kinetin+15% coconut milk, formed roots. These rooted plantlets later flowered in vitro.
