%X A system for rapid plant regeneration through somatic embryogenesis from shoot tip explants of sorghum [Sorghum  bicolor (L.) Moench] is described. Somatic embryogenesis was observed after incubation of explants in dark for  6–7 weeks through a friable embryogenic callus phase. Linsmaier and Skoog medium supplemented with 2,4-  dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2 mg l
