Regeneration ability and callus induction of three Indian maize inbred lines HKI335 and HKI1105 and LM5 were evaluated. Immature embryos were used as explants. Genotype, medium type of auxin and their concentrations influenced callus induction MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of 2, 4 D (0.5 – 2 mg/L) were used for callus induction. MS media supplemented with 2mg/L of 2, 4D has shown highest percentage of callus induction 80%. Among the three genotypes tested HKI335 and HKI1105 both have shown higher regeneration percentage.
