Biochemical Changes during Plantlet Regeneration in Two Accessions of Mucuna pruriens

The genus Mucuna is an important medicinal herb and is extensively used in traditional Indian systems of medicine for various ailments. In vitro culture technique provides an alternative to plant propagation and germplasm conservation. Our aim was to study the biochemical changes occurring during re...
