<br/><br/> A simple, rapid, efficient and reproducible protocol for  micropropagation, callus induction and regeneration from callus of the  unfulfilled promising biodiesel Jatropha curcas plant was established using  MS medium supplemented with different growth regulators for all cultures  of study. Obtained results showed that, shoot culture initiation achieved on  0.5 mg/l BA + 0.25 mg/l IBA. Multiplication and elongation was achieved  using 0.5 mg/l BA in combination with 0.05 mg/l IBA. Elongated shootles  were rooted on half MS media containing 1.0 mg/l IAA. The rooted plantlets  were acclimatized to sand: peat-moss: vermiculate mixture successfully.  Leaf and petiole explants were used for callus induction
