Abstract
Shoot cultures of Cephaelis ipecacuanha A. Richard were established by using shoot tips as initial explants. Multiple shoots were obtained from node segments upon culture on B5 medium supplemented with NAA-BA (0.01–3, 5 mg/l). These shoots were rooted on B5 and 1/2 MS media containing IAA or NAA, and the regenerated plants were transferred to soil and grown in a greenhouse. The emetic alkaloids of the regenerated plants, mother plants and leaves of shoot cultures were analyzed by TLC and HPLC. Seven months of growth under greenhouse condition, the contents of the emetic alkaloids in the regenerated plants were comparable to those of the mother plants.
