Abstract
The present review summarises the in vitro multiple plantlet regeneration of
Stemona tuberosa. MS medium fortified with 7 mg/L Kn was found to be the optimum
for multiple shoot induction from axillary buds. Excision and culture of nodal segments
from the in vitro shoots on medium containing 7 mg/L Kn and 4 mg/L TDZ showed a
maximum number of shoot multiplication. Shoots developed were rooted best on ½
strength MS with 1 mg/L IAA. Plantlets established in pots exhibited 85% survival.
