Callus culture was initiated from explants on the Murashige and Skoog medium having 30 g/l sucrose, 0.8% agar supplemented with various concentrations of BAP + NAA (2+1, 4+1, 5+1 mg/l). The maximum induction (62.50%) was observed in 2 mg/l BAP + 1 mg/l NAA under and above the surface of medium. At the beginning explants produced whitish yellow calli after 4 weeks of inoculation. In 3 mg/l BAP and in 2 mg/l BAP + 1 mg/l NAA maximum callus were developed.
