Abstract

An in vitro propagation protocol was developed for large scale production of Jatropha curcas.Uninodal explants in Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 1.33 M Benzyl Aminopurine (BA) and 0.29 M Gibberellic Acid (GA3) was achieved shoot induction.In vitro shoots in MS medium combination of 7.36 M Indole Indole (IBA) and 9.29 M Kinetin
(KN) was obtained multiple shoots.In vitro raised shoots were rooted in half strength MS medium supplemented with 1.34 M Naphthalene Acetic Acid (NAA). Survival percentage of rooted plantlets was recorded in the growth chamber (92.2) and mist chamber (85.4).
