Abstract:

Gerbera (Gerbera jamesonii Bolus) seeds were used as primary source of explants for sterilization. Seeds were sterilized with 0.1 % mercuric chloride for 2 minutes to obtain minimum contamination (10 %). MS (Murashige and Skoog’s media) supplemented with 4 mg per litre BAP + 0.3 mg per litre IAA served as the best medium for shoot proliferation from in vitro shoots as it produced maximum number of shoots (2.67) with maximum number of leaves (4.73) and maximum shoot length (1.92 cm) at three weeks of inoculation. For root regeneration MS media supplemented with 2 mg per litre IBA was recorded as the best rooting media as regenerated roots early (10.87) with maximum number of roots (4.73) and maximum root length (3.47 cm).


Keywords: Gerbera jamesonii, sterilization, BAP (6-benzyl amino purine), IAA (indole-3-acetic acid)
