In vitro plantlet production of Azadirachta indica was developed using nodal segments as explants. Multiple shoots were induced on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg 1-1 BA, 4 to 6 weeks after inoculation. Subsequently the in vitro developed shoots were rooted on MS medium supplemented with 2 mg 1-1 IAA. The rooted plantlets were transferred to polybags containing sterile soil mixture under mist chamber condition.
