Abstract Plant rgeneration occurred on leaf-and stem-derived callus of Cuphea ericoides Cham. & Schlechtd obtained in Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with auxins [indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) or 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d)] plus cytokinins [6-benzyladenine (BA) or kinetin]. These calluses were subcultured and showed vigorous growth. When subcultured on medium containing 2.22 or 4.44 μM BA, the calluses showed profuse regeneration of shoots whereas those subcultured on medium supplemented with 2.69 μM NAA or 0.226 μM 2,4-d produced numerous roots. Isolated shoots rooted on Murashige and Skoog medium lacking growth regulators or containing 0.54 μM NAA or 0.49 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). Plantlets were acclimatized to greenhouse conditions.
