A METHOD FOR MICROPROPAGATION OF JATROPHA CURCAS

摘要

Jatropha curcas is considered as a recalcitrant crop which does not easily respond to tissue culture. The instant disclosure provides a commercially viable tissue culture protocol that includes initiation, multiplication, shooting developments, root developments and greenhouse hardening (acclimatization). At each of the above stages, the instant disclosure provides innovative process protocols and media protocols that were able to successfully generate tissue culture plantlets of Jatropha curcas on a commercial scale.
