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.). The polyphenolic content, antioxidant and antibacterial potential were studied from in vitro regenerated a...

The polyphenolic content, antioxidant and antibacterial potential were studied from in vitro regenerated and in vivo plants. Results: Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 3% sucrose containing a combination of 3.0 μM TDZ, 1.0 μM IBA and 75 μM spermidine induced maximum number of shoots (45 shoots per explant) was achieved. Regenerated shoots elongated in shoot elongation medium containing 1.5 μM GA3 and 50 μM spermine.
