Abstract
Cultures were established for micropropagation of Lavandula latifolia Medicus from hypocotyl explants. Bud induction was achieved by placing the explants on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0.60 μM IAA and 8.9 μM BA. The buds developed into numerous shoots on transfer to several elongation media. Shoots were easily rooted (95%) on MS hormone-free medium with macronutrients at half-strength. Plantlets were successfully transplanted into soil. Chemical names used: N-(phenylmethyl)-1H-purin-6-amine (BA); 1H-indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).
