Abstract

Vanilla planifolia can be propagated using phenyl acetic acid (PAA) as a primary factor to induce multiple shoots from axillary buds. Shoots can be induced and then elongated in media containing MS salts, vitamins, 6-benzyladenine (BA) and PAA. Elongation of shoots and formation of new shoots from nodes was achieved on medium containing BA + PAA. The shoots could be rooted on a medium supplemented with indole butyric acid and after hardening and transfer to the field, 70–80% survived.
