Abstract

Mature seeds of Butea buteiformis were cultured on half strength Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium. Nodal cuttings were used as explants from in vitro growing plants for experimentation. Plants were well grown on the medium supplemented with benzylaminopurine (BAP) 0.5 µM / l and indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) 1.0 µM/ l. Such propagated plants were acclimatized very well and transferred to the field. All the collected data were worked out statistically with SPSS, a system of analytical procedure.
