Abstract

The spore, first cell of gametophytic generation, is a specialized structure with a potential of developing in to a new individual. BAP and kinetin stimulate the spore germination in Notothylas khasiana is reported. However, stimulatory influence of BAPwas greater as compared to kinetin. Spore generation was maximum in 10 ppm of BAP followed by 5 ppm and 1 ppm concentration. Further higher concentration of both proved to be inhibitory.
