Abstract

Aloe vera L. is an economically important plant. In nature its regeneration is very slow. Therefore to fulfill its demand at commercial level it is necessary to use in-vitro propagation for rapid plant production. Leaf and shoot explants of Aloe Vera L. cultured on Murashige & Skoog s medium (1962) supplemented with NAA, BAP and IBA alone or in combination. Development of root and callus were investigated from excised leaf.
