Explants (cotyledon, cotyledonary node, second node, hypocotyl, epicotyl, and leaf) of cowpea (Vigna unguiculata) genotypes MN13 and Pinkeye Purple Hull were cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal nutrient medium. The medium was supplemented with 1 mg·L–1 benzyladenine (BA) or 1 mg·L–1 benzyladenine plus naphthalene acetic acid (BA + NAA) or 2 mg·L–1 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4-D). Cultures were maintained at 22°C for 1 month, after which they were transferred to 1 mg·L–1 BA + NAA. Cotyledons, hypocotyl, epicotyl, and leaf segments produced only calli after subculturing in BA + NAA. The second node and cotyledonary node explants cultured on the BA or BA + NAA followed by subculture on BA + NAA produced calli, shoots, and roots. The plants were then transplanted to promix but later died.
