Abstract : Shoot tip explants (1 cm in length) of pomegranate (Punica granatum L.) proliferated and produced shoots after 8 weeks of in vitro culture. Shoot tip explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with a combinations ofIAA:BA at ranges of 0.0-1.3 mg/! and 0.0-3.0 mg/! respectively. Shoot multiplication occurred efficiently 4 weeks after the initial growth was recultured. BA alone (0.8 mg/! produced the highest proliferative effect though BA + IAA at 3.0:0.2 mg/lhad a relatively high multiplication effect (3.4 shoot/explant). The interaction of IAA and BA showed to have an effect on shoot length and shoot number per culture. The produced shoots were subcultured on half strength MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/l IBA and 0.25 g/! activated charcoal. The percentage of rooted cultures was 100%.
