Abstract

Plantlets produced in vitro from rhizomes of Kaempferia parviflora were used as the source of explants for microrhizome development. Sixty percent of the plantlets formed microrhizomes in liquid medium supplemented with1 mg/L BAP+1 mg/L NAA, with 60 g/L sucrose. The treatment gave the highest fresh weight of microrhizomes, at 265 mg/plantlet. This optimized protocol is suitable for the commercial production of disease-free Kaempferia microrhizomes that can be stored and transported easily.
