Adventitious shoots were successfully regenerated from shoot tip and nodal section explants of Gypsophila paniculata L. The efficiency of shoot regeneration for cv. ‘Bristol Fairy’ was tested on 12 media based on Murashige and Skoog basal medium containing different concenterations of BAP, kinetin and 2ip or their combinations. Highest efficiency of adventitious shoot regeneration was obtained with 6μM BAP when shoot tip explant was used. For in vitro rooting different combination of auxins were used in MS medium out of which 5μM NAA + 5μM IBA was found to be best with 100% rooting of shoots.
