MD2 was established by using crown explant and inoculated on MS medium fortified with varying concentrations of 2,4-D (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0 mg/l) alone and in combination with BAP (1.0, 2.0, 3.0 mg/l). All 21 treatments showed explant callusing excluding control. Combination of 2.0 mg/l 2,4-D + 2.0 mg/l BAP had significantly (p<0.05) induced 91.67 ± 8.33 % callus after 23 days of culture with 0.25 ± 0.07 g callus fresh weight (FW). However, there was moderate correlation between the earliness of callus formation and frequency of callus formation (p>0.5). MS medium fortified with different 2,4-D concentrations (0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 4.0, 6.0, 8.0 mg/l) were combined with constant 2.0 mg/l TDZ for callus proliferation. Callus FW, 1.52 ± 0.03 g recorded in MS media supplemented with 6.0 mg/l 2,4-D + 2.0 mg/l TDZ was highly significant (p<0.05) and optimal for callus proliferation.

Bromelain augmentation strategies were investigated in MS medium supplemented with optimum PGRs and different sucrose concentrations (0, 10, 20, 30, 40 g/l), thiamine (0.0, 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6 μM) and MS strength (Without MS, a quarter, half, three quarter, full). Optimum medium for enhanced bromelain content in full strength of MS medium (1.22 ± 0.04 mg/ml), 40 g/l sucrose (1.38 ± 0.02 mg/ml) and 1.2 μM thiamine (1.36 ± 0.40 mg/ml) were statistically significant (p<0.05).
