A protocol was described to regenerate plants from callus culture of ginger (Zingiber officinale Rosc.). Callus cultures were induced from ginger shoot tips inverted cultured on semi-solid MS medium supplemented with 2, 4-D (0.5-1.0 mg L-1) and BA (0.5- 1.0 mg L-1). Maximum callus induction was obtained on MS medium supplemented with BA (0.5 mg L-1) either alone or with 2,4-D (0.5 – 1.0 mg L-1), while the highest callus weight was on MS medium supplemented with BA (0.5 mg L-1) and 2,4-D (0.5 mg L-1). Induced callus was tested for regeneration on MS medium supplemented with different concentrations of 2,4-D and BA and the best regeneration was observed on a medium containing 2.5 mg L-1 BA. The regenerated plants were rooted and successfully established in the field after few days of acclimatization.
