| Abstract | Efficient plant regeneration is an essential pre-requisite for a complete genetic transformation protocol. Direct somatic embryogenic cultures were established in commercial sugarcane varieties viz. CoJ 83 and CoH 119. Problem of browning of media was observed mainly in cultures of CoJ 83 as compared to CoH119. To study the effect of adsorption of phenolics by activated charcoal, two treatments were assayed in cv. CoJ 83 i.e. on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with α-Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA; 5 mgl$^{−1}$) and Kinetin (Kin; 0.5 mgl$^{−1}$) (control) and MS + NAA (5 mgl$^{−1}$) + Kin (0.5 mgl$^{−1}$) + charcoal (0.2% w/v) medium (treatment). In addition to control of browning of medium by phenolics, per cent somatic embryogenesis (SE) increased from 80.21 to 84.88 and per cent regeneration was also enhanced from 75.15 to 81.22 in sugarcane variety CoJ 83, when the medium was supplemented with 2,000 mgl$^{−1}$ of activated charcoal (AC). Further, the effect of addition of different carbon sources i.e. sucrose and maltose in four different concentrations 20, 25, 30 and 35 gl$^{−1}$ was studied and maximum per cent SE (98.35% in CoJ 83 and 93.12% in CoH 119; respectively) and maximum per cent regeneration (94.17% in CoJ 83 and 89.67% in CoH 119; respectively) was observed on MS + NAA (5 mgl$^{−1}$) and Kin (0.5 mgl$^{−1}$) medium supplemented with 25 gl$^{−1}$ maltose. Direct SE and regeneration was also affected considerably by varying the gelling agent (agar or gelrite) and its concentration. Best results were observed with increases in per cent SE and regeneration on medium solidified with agar (1.2%) compared to gelrite, when used as a gelling agent. Thus, this fairly simple activated charcoal (2% w/v), maltose (25 gl$^{−1}$) and agar (1.2%) containing direct SE medium provided an alternative method for improving SE and hence, regeneration frequency of sugarcane. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
