Phenolic compound production and biological activities from in vitro regenerated plants of gherkin (Cucumis anguria L.)

Background: The effect of polyamines (PAs) along with cytokinins (TDZ and BAP) and auxin (IBA) was induced by the multiple shoot regeneration from leaf explants of gherkin (Cucumis anguria L.).
