A tissue culture protocol for regeneration of Jatropha curcas using leaf explants via somatic embryogenesis was established. The best response for callus induction from leaf explants was on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing BA (1.0 and 2.0 mg l-1) and IBA (1.0 mg l-1). Callus was maintained in light and dark on MS medium supplemented with
