We are trying to regenerate shoot from tobacco callus. for this purpose we have used different concentration of cytokinin. 1-8 mg/l BAp, kinetin, 1-8 mg/l BAP+kinetin and callus was put in 16 hour day and 8 hour night cycle but we didn't find any regeneration. callus become green and just increase in size.
then we use higher concentration of cytokinin that is BAP and very less concentration of auxin (1/4th conc. of cytokinin) that is 2,4-D. still we didn't get shoot regeneration. Conc. of BAP in this case is 2,6 and 8mg/l.
Is there any problem in the selection of phytohormones or there could be other reasons for plants were not regenerated.
kindly help me to solve this problem
