Protocolo para la propagación in vitro de Zingiber officinale Roscoe vía organogénesis.

Ginger (Zingiber officinale Roscoe) is traditionally propagated by rhizomes and can carry diseases that decrease production. In vitro propagation allows healthy seed to be obtained, in high volumes and in less time. The objective of this work was to present a protocol for the in vitro propagation of Z. officinale via organogenesis. Procedures for in vitro establishment from axillary buds of primary rhizomes of field-grown plants are included. In addition, the in vitro multiplication and planting in the ex vitro acclimatization phase with high survival rates. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
