Abstract

Micropropagation protocol has been standardized for the medicinal plant Clerodendrum serratum using leaf explant. The synergetic effect of BAP (2.0 mg/l) with NAA (0.3 mg/l) on Lloyd and Mc Cown medium, induced a mean of 8.25 + 0.28 shoots from the leaf callus. The frequency of shoot production was highest (92%). The microshoots rooted well on woody plant medium without growth regulators, as well as on the medium supplemented with 0.1 to 0.5 mg/l of NAA. Regenerated plants were successfully acclimatized and about 88% of the hardened regenerants survived under natural condition.
