Callus cultures were produced from leaf, excised from axenic carnation, Dianthus caryophyllus L. seedling, on agar-solidified MS medium supplemented with 0.5 mgl-1 of 2,4-D and 0.1 mgl-1 of BA. Cell suspension was initiated in liquid MS medium containing the above growth regulators. This suspension reported the density of 143 × 103 cell /ml and its viability was ranged between 41-90%. Samples of cell suspension represents seven different densities were exposed to three electrotreatment 300v/50 msec, 500v/100msec. and 700v/150 msec. These electrotreated samples were cultured by embedding in to agar drops in solid- liquid cultures. Callus derived from cell suspension expressed their totipotency forming carnation plants.
