< Previous page | Next page > /docserver/preview/fulltext/9789815238303/chapter-6-1.gifAegle marmelos (L.) Corr. is a plant of religious and medicinal importance in India. All of its plant parts have been reported to possess medicinal uses due to the presence of various phytoconstituents. Looking at its perspectives, Aegle is successfully propagated in vitro, primarily through organogenesis, using numerous explants. Efficient micropropagation is ensured by proper sterilization, preparation of explants, and use of antioxidants to avoid media browning. Various factors that affect the regeneration rate include season of explant collection, explant origin, phenological growth stage, concentration and combination of Plant Growth Regulators (PGR), culture media composition, and addition of additives to the media to enhance the micropropagation rate. The present review chapter compiles numerous reports of the effective micropropagation of A. marmelos and factors that affect the rate of micropropagation.
