Abstract

Albizia amara drought tolerant tree found in dry forests of India, belonging to the family Fabaceae. Plant growth regulators play an important role in seed germination. Auxin mediates the development processes in plants. The present study was conducted in an attempt to conserve by in vitro seed germination of Albizi aamara  with various concentrations of growth regulator IAA. A significant result was obtained for IAA at (5 ppm, 4 ppm and 3 ppm) compared to other treatments. Regenerated plants were successfully acclimatized and transferred to the green house with significant survival rate.
