Description A protocol for in vitro propagation using direct induction of shoot buds from leaf explants of in vitro-raised shoots of
Rosa damascena var. Jwala is reported. The present study is the first report on direct shoot regeneration in scented roses.
Elite plants raised from nodal explants and maintained for over 2 yr in vitro on a static liquid shoot multiplication
Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 5.0 mM benzyladenine (BA) and 3% sucrose were used. Petioles
from fully developed young leaves, obtained after 4 wk of pruning of old shoots, were found to be ideal for regeneration of
shoots. Initially the explants were cultured in an induction medium [half-strength MS þ 3%sucrose þ 6.8mM
thidiazuron þ 0.27mM a-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) þ 17.7mM AgNO3] and subsequently transferred to the
regeneration medium (MS þ 2.25mM BA þ 0.054mM NAA) after 7, 14, 21, 28, and 35 d. The highest shoot regeneration
response (69%) was recorded when shoots were kept in the induction medium for 21 d and later transferred to regeneration
medium. Histological studies revealed direct formation of shoot buds without the intervening callus phase. In vitro rooting
of micro-shoots was accomplished within 2 wk on half-strength MS liquid medium supplemented with 10.0 mM IBA and
3% sucrose for 1 wk in the dark and later transferred to hormone-free medium and kept in the light. Plantlets, remaining in
the latter medium for 5–6 wk when transferred to soil, showed 90% survival.
