Abstract
Callogenic response of different plant parts of explant type such as petals and tuber of Momordica cymbalaria was tried on MS medium with varied concentrations hormones. The light green yellowish friable callus and white light brown compact callus was produced in petals and tuber respectively. Maximum fresh weight 545 ± 2.23 mg was observed in the callus derived from petals on MS + 0.9 mg/l IAA within 15 days, MS+ 1.0 mg/l BA within 14 days with maximum fresh weight 702 ± 3.40 mg and white light brown compact callus derived from tuber on MS + 2.8 mg/l NAA within 12 days with maximum fresh weight 747 ± 3.50 mg.
