ABSTRACT
The rapid multiplication from the soot-tip of ginger through in vitro culture has taken. Aseptic shoot tip from rhizome of ginger were cultured on MS medium. Three persent sucrose, 0.5% agar and different concentrations and combinations of hormone were used for the media. Vigorous ginger plantlets were obtained directly from the shoot tip explant supplemented with 2.5 and 0.5 mg/l Kn. 22-25 plantlets from each explants were directly transferred to the field without any acclimatization. 100% plants were successfully survived in the field condition.
