Abstract
Terminal buds or axillary buds of trees of genus Swietenia is cultured on a B5 medium containing 3-indole butyric acid (IBA) and benzylaminopurine (BAP) or its modified medium to induce multiple shoots; the multiple shoots are transplanted to a similar medium containing IBA and BAP to the above and cultured by liquid gyratory culture to efficiently propagate the multiple shoots; then the propagated multiple shoots are transplanted to a similar medium containing IBA and BAP to the above and subjected to liquid stationary culture to efficiently elongate a large number of the shoots; and the elongated shoots are transplanted to a similar medium containing IBA to the above to promote shoot elongation and rooting, thereby producing a large number of young plantlets of trees of genus Swietenia.
