[Tissue culture and rapid propagation of Phytolacca americana].
OBJECTIVE
To explore the technique of rapid propagation for Phytolacca americana.


METHODS
Aseptic seedling were used as explants.


RESULTS
The best explants were the stems from strong aseptic seedling. The optimal culture media were MS + NAA (0.2 mg/L) +6-BA (1.0 mg/L) for primarily culture, MS + NAA (0.2 mg/L) +6-BA (2.0 mg/L) for the induction of clustered shoots 1/2MS with NAA 0.4 mg/L for rooting.


CONCLUSIONS
The propagating coefficient of Phytolacca americana can be improved by inducing the clustered shoots from aseptic seedling.
