Abstract
The goal of this project was to regenerate Artemisia abrotanum L., Southern wormwood, by means of organogenesis from leaves. In vitro plant propagation may greatly support the molecular characterization of the medicinal qualities of A. abrotanum. Young, intact leaves were excised from mature plants and surface sterilized. Abundant callus growth, as well as shoot formation, was produced on an MS medium supplemented with 4.44 μM BA and 0.54 μM or 0.81 μM NAA. Shoots, with some residual callus, rooted equally well in MS media with 0.49 μM IBA, 0.54 μM NAA, or without hormones. Rooted plants were best acclimated in potting soil.
