Abstract
A protocol of high frequency shoot organogenesis and plant establishment from stem derived callus has been developed for Tylophora indica (Burm. f.) Merrill. - an endangered medicinal plant. Callus was developed on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 10 μM 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxy acetic acid (2,4,5-T). Multiple shoot induction was achieved from the surface of the callus after transferring onto shoot induction medium. The highest rate (80 %) of shoot multiplication was achieved on MS medium containing 5.0 μM kinetin. The developed shoots rooted best on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 0.5 μM indole-3-butyric acid (IBA). The in vitro raised plantlets with well developed shoot and roots were acclimatized successfully and grown in greenhouse.
