RESUMEN
A protocol was developed for high frequency plant regeneration in H. patulum by shoot-tip culture. H. patulum plants were collected from a wild source growing at high altitude in the eastern Himalayas. Multiple buds were initiated from shoot-tips cultured on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with BAP, kinetin. Addition of thiamin HCI, Ca-pantothenate and biotin enhanced multiple shoot formation. Upon transfer to phytohormone free liquid medium following a brief exposure to auxin, root formation occurred from the micro shoots . Rooted plants were hardened and transferred to soil. Regeneration potentiality was found to be constant throughout the year in long term cultures.
