Abstract

Efficient and genotype-independent in vitro regeneration is an essential prerequisite for incremental trait improvement in peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) via genetic transformation. We have optimized a facile and rapid method to obtain direct shoot organogenesis from cotyledonary node (CN) explants excised from peanut seedlings germinated on cytokinin-supplemented Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal salt medium. Starting with mature embryos, shoot induction occurred in approximately 7 weeks, followed by 4 weeks for rooting of excised shoots and 3 weeks of acclimatization of regenerated plantlets in soil.......
