| Abstract: | Tissue culture was initiated and selected callus strains, obtained from shoot explants of Ecballium elaterium treated with 0.1 mg/t naphthalene acetic acid and I mg/I benzylamino purine, were compared with each other for physical and phytochemical characteristics. The strains differed in texture, colour, cell morphology, moisture, cucurbitacin 'and chlorophyll contents. For the individual strains, cucurbitacin and chlorophyll contents showed a direct correlation. |
