Callus induction and in vitro plantlet regeneration systems for safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) cv. Bhima using root, hypocotyl, cotyledon and leaf explants were optimized by studying the influence on organogenesis of seedling age, media factors, growth regulators and excision orientation. Supplementation of the medium with an auxin: cytokinin ratio > 1 enhanced the growth rate of callus cultures; however, for 2,4-D the ratio was < 1.34-11.41 mu M concentrations of growth regulators (IAA, NAA, BA and Kinetin) in the medium were found effective for callus induction and regeneration in all explants. The calli could be maintained over 32 months. BA (4.43 mu M) combined with casein hydrolysate (10 mg l(-1)) yielded the highest rate of shoot production on hypocotyl (3-6) and cotyledon (5-7) explants and cotyledonary derived callus (4-8). More shoots were produced on explants cut from the most basal region of cotyledons from 5 to 7-day-old seedlings than from older seedlings or more distal cut sites. Apolar placement of explants, inhibited shoot regeneration. The shoot regeneration potential remained upto 7 months in calli developed on NAA + BA. Of three media tested, MS was superior to SH-M and B(5). Rooting of shoots was not efficient; 42% of the shoots were rooted on MS medium containing sucrose (7-8%) + IAA (2.8-5.7 mu M). Capitula induction was observed in both callus mediated shoots on cotyledons and shoots on rooting medium with sucrose, IAA, NAA and IBA. Well developed plantlets were transferred to the field with a 34% success rate.
