Abstract:
Hypocotyl segments, 5 to 8 mm length from 4 to 7 day old seedlings, callused on B5 medium supplemented with Kn (0.5 ppm) and NAA (0.1 ppm). Even without transfer, shoots were formed in such cultures. About 20% of the cultures produced multiple shoots. In medium with 1 ppm each of Kn and NAA direct shoots were formed at one end of the hypocotyl segment and callusing was initiated at the other end. The plants obtained in either medium formed roots and could be transferred to soil for further growth.

Transgenic Plants
The first-ever transgenic plant was a tobacco plant developed in 1983 that showed resistance against the tobacco mosaic virus. Since then, many transgenic plants have been developed and commercialized for improving the agricultural, ornamental, and horticultural value of a crop plant. Transgenic...
