Glycine max (L) Merr (Soyabean) of family
Fabaceae is a significant legume crop exten-
sively cultivated for food, forage and soil im-
provement but especially for its nutritious pro-
tein and oil-rich seeds. Soybean is a rich source
of dietary proteins including all essential amino
acids. It contain isoflavones such as genistein
and daidzein having estrogen like effects. Soy-
bean oil is recommended for cooking pur-
pose as it contains polyunsaturated alpha li-
nolenic acid which reduces cardiovascular
risk. In the present investigation attempts have
been made to standardize a protocol for pro-
duction of callus mass and regeneration of
Glycine max. Effects of different auxins (2, 4-
D, NAA, IAA and IBA) on its various explants
viz. root, stem and leaves have been analyzed.
Auxin concentrations ranging from 0.5 mg/L
to 5mg/L were employed. 2, 4-D has proved
itself superior to NAA, IAA and IBA in pro-
ducing callus. Stem and leaves are suitable
explants for regeneration.MS media supple-
mented with 2.5 mg/L IAA taking stem as ex-
plant was able to produce callus which turned
greenish in colour and ultimately whole plant
was developed with shoot, root and leaves
within six weeks of culture
ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION
Glycine max (L) Merr. (Soyabean) is erect bushy hairy annual herbaceous grainlegume having trifoliate leaves and purple to pink flowers; extensively cultivatedfor food, forage and soil fertility improvement but especially for its nutritious oil-rich seeds. It is native to East Asia. Main producers of Glycine max are USA (35%),Argentina (27%), Brazil (19%), China (6%) and India (4%). Its seeds are used assource for biodiesel production. It is rich source of dietary proteins. It is used asraw as well as processed food and also in drinks. Traditional non fermented usesof soybean as food source products include soya sauce, fermented bean paste,tempeh and natto. USA is largest consumer of soya food products. Warm climate issuitable for its cultivation but water logging inhibits its growth and is also suscep-tible to draught, high and low temperature, insect pests, weeds and various patho-gens. Soyabean contains protein, isoflavones, include soya milk, soya flour andtofu etc. Non traditional fermented food and fiber, all thought to provide healthbenefits. It is an excellent source of dietary protein, including all essential aminoacids. It is also a source of phospholipid lecithin. Isoflavones such as genistein anddaidzein are believed to have estrogen like effects in the body so are sometimescalled as phytoestrogens.These plant estrogens though having mild effect are ad-vised by some dieticians to be usefull to prevent cancer and solve post menopauseproblems (Duke,1981). In order to enhance the production and also improve thequality and quantity of useful ingredients and to overcome biotic and abiotic chal-lenges a systematic and sustainable crop improvement plan is to be followed.Soyabean is conventionally propagated through seeds. Improvement of cropsthrough plant tissue culture can be accomplished by growing plants in the labora-tory through callus initiation and regeneration of shoots and roots or regenerationof multiple plants directly from explants such as leaves, shoots, seeds, embryosand cotyledons. As it is a legume having seeds rich in protein and oil content so isa valuable farm product in high demand. To meet the increasing demand needs tobe cultured in- vitro so as enormous plantlets of superior varieties having resis-tance can be supplied to farmers. Kudirka et al. (1986) have studied interaction ofAgrobacterium tumefaciens with Soybean leaf explant culture for genetic improve-ment. Olhoft et al. (2006) have tried for agrobacterium mediated genetic transfor-mation of Soybean using mature cotyledonary node explants. As Glycine max
(Soybean) is a plant with increasing demands due to its multipurpose uses, there isurgent need for alternative system of multiplication of this plant. Keeping this inmind, in the present investigation attempts have been made with an objective tostandardize a protocol for production of callus mass and regeneration of soyabean.There are a few earlier reports on in- vitro regeneration of Glycine max (Barwale et
al., 1986; Wright et al. 1987; Dan and Reichert ,1998; Kim et al., 2004; Kumari et
al., 2006; Kita et al., 2007; Radhakrishnan and Ranjithakumari, 2007; Loganathanet al., 2010). In the present project MS solid media supplemented with differentcombinations of auxins viz. 2, 4-D, NAA, IAA and IBA have been tried usingvarious explants such as root, stem and leaves.

MATERIALS AND METHODS
Culture medium
MS (Murashige and Skoog, 1962) basal medium was used inthe present investigation. Concentrated stock solution of majorand minor salts, iron source, vitamins and amino acids wereprepared separately and stored under refrigeration. Requiredvolume of stock solution was pipetted out during mediapreparation and 0.3% sucrose was added. The chemicalsused for preparing media were of analytical grade from Loba,Merck and Sigma. Medium was homogenized by boiling andcontinuous stirring with pH of medium adjusted upto 5.8before adding 0.8% agar by using 0.1 N NaOH or 0.1N HCL.Desired concentration of growth regulators was added andmixed properly. 15-20mL medium was poured into culturetubes (15x2.5cm) which were washed thoroughly and rinsedin distilled water and oven dried. Sterilizarion of medium wasdone for 15- 20 minutes at pressure 1.1 kg/cm2 at temperature121ºC. Tubes containing sterilized medium were left in tiltedposition to prepare slants in air conditioned room.
Preparation of Explant
Some seeds of Glycine max (L) Merr. collected from seedcentre, Ranchi were soaked in water to facilitate in-vitrogermination. Vegetative parts such as stem, leaf and root weretaken as explant from in vitro grown seedlings. The explantsafter thoroughly washing with tap water were treated withSuthol solution for about 5 minutes and again washed withrunning tap water. The explants were then surface sterilizedin 0.2% of HgCl
2 by immersing for 2-3 minutes and then were
rinsed in double distilled water. These sterilized stem andleaves were then cut into pieces of about 1.0-1.5cm and madeready for inoculation in order to observe callus formationand regeneration potentiality. Various concentrations rangingfrom 0.5mg/L to 5mg/L of four auxins (2,4-D, NAA, IAA andIBA) were used. Seedlings used for obtaining explants were
grown in culture tubes aseptically as well as in pots. Seedswere soaked in water for 24h before inoculation. Fullydeveloped seedlings formation took about 15 days. Root, Stemand leaf explants were used for callus induction andorganogenesis
Inoculation
The explants were in-oculated into test tubes containingsterilized media under Laminar Air Flow cabinet. Transfer areawas sterilized with UV light and by swabbing the floor surfacewith 95% ethyl alcohol. Inoculation tools were flamed beforetransferring the explants. Each experiment with 10 culture tubeswas repeated 4 times and were observed every day for their
morphological response.
RESULTS
In the present investigation 2, 4-D appeared as most suitablefor callus induction followed by NAA, IAA and IBA. 2.5 mg/Lto 5 mg/L 2, 4-D was found to be optimum for callus growthtaking root as explants (Fig.1). Few small secondary roots alsoappeared in about 4-6 weeks cultures. 2, 4-D induced callusformation in both leaf and stem explants (Fig. 2 and 3). 2, 4-Dand NAA both initiated callus either alone or in combination.Callus produced was of cream colour in primary stage whichgradually turned brown or yellowish green (Table-1). NAA,IAA and 2, 4-D helped in root initiation whereas IBA was foundto be suitable for formation of shoots. NAA was able to induceconsiderably good amount of callus in stem explants. 5 mg/LNAA was also able to induce leaves within 6 weeks (Fig. 4).The callus was of cream colour initially. After 4 weeks fewgreen patches appeared at some parts of callus. From this sub-cultured callus roots about 1" in length developed. In case ofleaf explant comparatively less amount of callus was producedbut roots were not developed. In case of root explants callusgrowth was very poor. Regeneration potential of IBA was more

and resulted in formation of roots and shoots both. Callusproduction was less, cut ends of leaves developed only callus,a few white coloured roots also developed. Stem and leavesboth regenerated on MS medium supplemented with IAA andattained maturity. Stem explants produced both roots andshoots in concentrations ranging from 1.5 mg/L to 5mg/L. IBA(Figs. 5 to 8).
DISCUSSION
Callus induction by 2, 4-D and NAA concentrations in the
present study have been earlier reported by Ebony et al. (2010)who have taken excised cotyledons and embryos from
germinating seeds and have reported formation of callus withvarious concentrations of 2, 4-D and NAA used alone or incombination. The callus was further transferred to BAP andkinetin containing media to obtain roots and shoots. Finallyfully developed plants were transferred to pots in less than 3months. In present investigation MS media supplemented with2.5 mg/L IAA taking stem as explant was able to producecallus (Fig. 9) which turned greenish in colour and ultimatelywhole plant was developed with shoot, root and leaves withinsix weeks of culture (Figs. 10 to12). Isler and Vural (2010)were able to obtain plantlets of Glycine max by germinationgseeds in-vitro condition on MS hormone free medium within21 days .Part of these sterile plantlets were used by them as
