Abstract

Betel vine (Piper betle L,) cv. Lakkuvalli was successfully micropropagated on Woody Plant Medium (WPM). Different explants from shoot, leaf and root tissues developed multiple shoots and rengenerated into plantlets either directly or through intervening callus phase on WPM supplemented with 3 mgl-1 benzyladenine and 1 mgl-1 kinetin. The excised shoots developed good root system on growth regulator free medium of the same composition. The plantlets were transferred to soil with 80% success.
