CONCLUSION
The present study shows the morphological and
genetic influence of different combinations of auxin (IBA)
and cytokinin (BAP) supplementation of MS media on the
callus generated. RAPD was effective in detecting
variations that may occur as a result of callus induction
from leaf explants of the of J. curcas. Four of the eight
auxin cytokinin combinations tried were found to show
similarity with the motherplant. Since callus culture
system offer many advantages as a model system for
several biological investigations the present findings
could be used in mass propagation, secondary metabolite
production and genetic engineering studies
