We have established in vitro propagation system of dwarf napiergrass (Pennisetum puryureum Schum) via multiple-shoot clumps formation. Shoot apices as initial explants were isolated aseptically from shoot-tillers and cultured in yitro on solid Murashige Skoog (MS) medium. The most effective phytoh...
