Abstract: The effect of genotype and phytohormone(6-BA,ABA) were studied by using six types of cucumber cotyledon as explants in this experiment. The results showed that the shoot regeneration frequency was different among the various cucumber genotypes. Jilinhangua has the highest shoot regeneration frequency which reached 97% and 5. 2 shoots per explant cultured in M7(MS + 1. 5 mg /L 6-BA + 0. 5 mg /L ABA + 2 mg /L AgNO3 ) medium. The number of regenerate shoot was improved in the medium containing 6-BA,ABA and AgNO3 compared to CK,and 6-BA was necessary and ABA was efficient to the shoot regeneration. Moreover the elongation of the regenerate shoot was significant in the medium containing 0. 1 mg /L 6-BA.
