摘要: Abstract An in vitro plantlet regeneration system has been developed from cotyledon segments of Capsicum chinense Jacq. cv. Naga King Chili, a very pungent chili species India. Rosette-like structures (RLS) were induced on the explants which transfer to medium containing indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) resulted multiple shoots course time. Agar-based Murashige and Skoog (MS) fortified with 18.16 μM thidiazuron (TDZ) was found be most suitable for RLS induction shoot formation. Maximum number (9.5 ± 0.39) roots (8.6 ± 0.50), root length (2.4 ± 0.02 cm) obtained rosette-like 5.70 μM IAA. Combined effect putrescine (Put) (5.6 μM) TDZ (4.54 μM) mediated direct (5.8 ± 0.44) induction. The rooted plantlets transferred glass house hardening acclimatization, wherein 90% survival recorded. hardened plantlets, thus established soil bore normal fruits after 4 months transfer. capsaicin content matured propagated plants 0.05236 g/g d wt (837,760 Scoville Heat Units, SHU), where as vivo raised yielded 0.0545 g/g d wt (872,000 SHU) respectively.
