This study was carried out to assess the potential of hypocotyl explants for multiple-propagation by intensive sweetener variety with high yielding in stevia of self-fertilization. Agronomical character of self-fertilization shown a height range 72.0~120.7 cm, branch's 4.9~56.6 in stevia. Selection of high content of Rebaudioside A (RA) from segregating population in mixing variety have a variety, 'DA1' (55.2%) from HPLC analysis. On a developing of multiple-propagation in stevia, hypocotyl explants used to select for reasonable medium under the influence of each plant growth regulators concentrations. In a Mix treatment of plant growth regulators, as Murashige and Skoog medium with 1.5 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L Kinetin showed the most favorable. We got the multiple-propagation of 30 shoots from one inoculated hypocotyl explants as the result of these bases. Rooting induced superbly on MS medium with 0.1 mg/L IBA with inoculated shoots. All of the rooting plants were adapted to a normal seedling. This method of multi-propagation is used effectively in Rebaudioside A productivity elevation.

Adventitious multiple shoots were developed from leaf, petiole and internode explants of Geophila reniformis D. Don. on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of $N^6$-benzylaminopurine (BAP) or Kinetin (KIN) alone or in combination with indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Leaf showed maximum organogenetic potential, followed by petiole and internode. Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 22.22 $\mu{M}$ BAP and 4.57 $\mu{M}$ IAA induced maximum shoot buds from leaf explants. Internodal segments showed low potential of direct organogenesis. The regenerated shoots rooted the best in presence of 10.75 - 13.44 $\mu{M}$ $\alpha$-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) along with 2.22 $\mu{M}$ BAP, and were successfully established in the field with a survival rate of 89.11%.

To determine the appropriate concentrations of nutrients and growth regulators for shoot proliferation and root initiation, several rose hybrid tea cultivars were cultured. Cultured shoot tips and lateral buds from different cultivars proliferated multiple shoots on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 0 to 4 mg/L BA and 0 to 0.05 mg/L NAA. The ability of the explants to proliferate shoots and initiate roots was affected by genotype, the nodal position of explant, the strength of MS basal medium and growth regulators used. The buds nearest the apex exhibited the slowest rate of development. Most cultivars had the highest shoot proliferation when cultured on MS medium with 2 mg/L BA and 0.01 mg/L NAA, but the degree varied by cultivars. Root development was enhanced by lowering the concentration of MS salts.

Mature nodal segments of 2-year-old greenhouse stock plant were cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with the different kinds and various concentrations of cytokinins to produce multiple shoots in in vitro condition. The most adventitious shoots were produced from excised ends of nodal segments. The highest average number $(24.6\;{\pm}\;4.6)$ of shoots was produced with the combination of BA 1.0mg/L and TDZ 0.1mg/L in MS medium. In addition, several shoots were formed from lenticels of bark cambium with the same treatment. These concentrations promoted high shooting capability upto $94.6\%$ and NAA was the best cytokinin among five different PGR sources.

This study was conducted to examine the effects of explant sources and plant growth regulators on mass propagation of Cyclamen persicum. Tuber, cotyledon, and petiole tissues were cultured on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations and combinations of auxins and cytokinins. Shoots were not induced from calli on cotyledon and petiole explants cultured on MS medium containing various concentrations of 2,4-D or NAA. However, multiple shoots were formed directly from tuber explants cultured on the medium containing 0.5 and 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D or NAA. In MS medium with cytokinin alone, TDZ was more effective in shoot formation than BA or kinetin in all explants. The combinations of NAA and BA was found to be most effective in shoot formation from tuber, cotyledon and petiole explants. Especially, shoots were formed from all the tuber explants on the medium containing 0.5 mg/L of NAA and BA. Hormonal effects on root formation were examined by subculturing single shoots on MS medium containing NAA or IBA. The medium with 0.5 mg/L IBA was most effective in root induction and subsequent plantlet regeneration.

Shoot induction system was developed in the recalcitrant plant species, Brassica rapa ssp. rapifera by using optimum selection of profit organ, phytohormone combination, seedling age and kind of culture container. Out of in vitro cultured leaf segment, petiole, hypocotyl, and cotyledon with petiole, only cotyledon with petiole derived from 4 day-old seedlings induced multiple shoot. The optimum combination of auxin and cytokinin for the multiple shoot induction was MS medium containing 5mg/L BA and 0.5mg/L NAA. The major factors for multiple shoot propagation were part of plant organ, age of seedling, and ratio of auxin and cytokinin. In addition, shoot regeneration was promoted in the 100ml Erlenmeyer flask compared with the $90mm{\times}20mm$ Petri-dish. The induced shoots formed roots easy on MS medium containing 0.1mg/L IBA and the whole plants were successfully cultivated in soil.

In the present study, the effects of plant growth regulators on adventitious shoot and root formation of various explants of $in$ $vitro$ seedlings of $Solanum$ $nigrum$ L. were investigated to determine the optimum conditions for the high-efficiency plant regeneration of this species. The formation of adventitious shoots was higher in leaf explants than in cotyledon, hypocotyl, or epicotyl explants at low concentrations (0.5~2.0 mg $L^{-1}$ ) of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). The number of adventitious shoots and the shoot length were also higher in both leaf and cotyledon explants. In particular, 2.0 mg $L^{-1}$ BAP was most effective for stimulating the induction and multiplication of adventitious shoots. In terms of root formation and root development from shoots that were separated from multiple shoots, indole butyric acid (IBA) and indole acetic acid (IAA) were more effective than ${\alpha}$-naphthalene acetic acid (NAA). The percentage of rooting as well as the number of roots per shoot (4.0), root length (7.82 cm), and shoot length (8.76 cm) was highest on MS media supplemented with 0.05 mg $L^{-1}$ IAA. Furthermore, 100% of the regenerated plantlets survived when transplanted to compost soil. These results suggest that leaf explants are the best source for the high-efficiency regeneration of $S.$ $nigrum$ L., and that 2.0 mg $L^{-1}$ BAP and 0.05 mg $L^{-1}$ IAA are the best conditions for shoot and root induction, respectively.

This study was carried out to induce plant regeneration via shoot formation from sucker explants of Rubus fruticosus L. To induce adventitious shoots, sucker explants were sterilized in $1.2\%$ NaOCl solution, and cultured on the MS solid medium supplemented with kinetin (0.5, 1.0, 3.0 mg/L) and BA (0.5, 1.0, 3.0 mg/L), respectively. As above, to induce adventitious shoots, sucker explants were cultured on the MS solid medium supplemented with IBA (0, 0.1, 1.0 mg/L) and BA (0, 0.1, 1.0, 2.0 mg/L). After 4 weeks of culture, the highest frquency $(100\%)$ of shoot formation from sucker explants was obtained from the medium with 1.0 mg/L BA. The highest shoot number per explant from in vitro shoot explants was 5.3. After 10 weeks of culture, the number of shoot per explant was increased. The highest frequency $(85\%)$ of root formation was obtained at 0.5 mg/L glycine medium, when the explant with shoot were cultured on the MS medium containing glycine at various concentrations from 0 to 2.0 mg/L. The survival rate of the plantlets after transfer to plastic pots containing sand, soil, and vermiculite (1:1:1, vol.) was $95\%$. The results indicate that micropropagation procedure can be applied for an efficient mass propagation of Rubus fruticosus.

Leaf mesophyll protoplasts of Dianthus superbus were cultured in MSP1 liquid medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/L BAP, 2.0 mg/L NAA and 9% mannitol. Protoplast-derived colonies were formed after 3 to 4 weeks of culture in the dark at 27$^{\circ}C$. These colonies were kept under continuous illumination (21.5 $\mu$E. m-2 sec-1) for 2 weeks and finally most of the colonies became green microcalli, about 3 mm in diameter. When green microcalli were transferred to MS solidified medium with 2.0 mg/L 2,4-D, they formed embryogenic calli after 4 week of culture. These calli were then transferred onto $N_{6}$ medium containing 0.1mg/L 2,4-D, 0.1 mg/L NAA, 2.0 mg/L kinetin and 2.0 g/L casein hydrolysate and cultured under illumination. After 5 weeks of culture the calli gave rise to multiple shoots of 10 to 15 per callus. Upon transfer onto MS medium containing 2.0 mg/L NAA, they were noted. The regenerates were successfully transplanted into potting soil.

Shoot formation was investigated from in vitro cultivation of exotic hybrid poplar (Populus koreana ${\times}$ P. trichocarpa) with a specific stomatal character occurring both upper and lower surface of leaves. Two different explants (stem and leaf segment) of Peace poplar were cultured on half strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with the various concentrations of thidiazuron as a plant growth regulator. Most adventitious shoots were produced from excised ends of stem or mid-veins of leaf segments. The highest average numbers of shoots were 7.1 and 5.3 with the treatments of 0.02mg/L TDZ in both explants of stem and leaf segment. The highest shooting rates were achieved to 83.3％ and 47.6％ with the concentrations of 0.01mg/L and 0.02mg/L TDZ by axillary bud and leaf cultures, respectively.
