In the present study, in vitro multiple shoot induction was achieved from cotyledonary node and stem nodal explants of cv. NARI-6 of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.). Among various growth regulators tested, MS salts and B5 vitamins supplemented with BA (6-Benzy-laminopurine) 17.76 μM and KN (Kinetin) 6.96 μM phytohormonal combination was found to be the most effective in initiating numerous shoot buds after 30 days of culture than BA (4.44-44.39 μM) or KN (2.32-46.40 μM) alone in the medium.
