An efficient in vitro regeneration procedure using thidiazuron (TDZ) has been developed to allow high frequency, multiple shoot induction from cotyledonary node explants of cluster bean (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba). Shoot bud induction occurred on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium after 4 weeks in the presence of TDZ, followed by transfer onto shoot multiplication and elongation media containing MS salts, B5 vitamins, and different combinations of auxins and cytokinins. Multiple shoots were induced at all levels of TDZ in the medium, but the best proliferation capacity occurred at 5 µM TDZ. Combinations of auxins and cytokinins showed a stimulatory effect on shoot multiplication and also on the length of the newly formed shoots. Maximum shoot induction [i.e., the highest number of shoots (16.0 ± 0.94) per explant] was obtained on agar-solidified medium containing 5 µM benzyladenine (BA) with 0.5 µM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Rooting of in vitro-regenerated shoots was achieved in ex vitro conditions by a pulse treatment with 300 µM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) for 15 min. Rooted plantlets were transferred to soil where 70 – 75% attained sexual maturity and produced viable seeds under greenhouse conditions. The present regeneration system is efficient and can be used in various in vitro manipulation studies.
