| Abstract | Hypericum hookerianum (Hypericaceae), a critically endangered plant of Western Ghats, India, has acquired significant importance due to its medicinal implications and ornamental flowers. This species is under severe anthropogenic pressure due to urbanization, tourism, and plantation activities taking place in their natural habitat. A clonal propagation strategy is standardized in this species which offers an opportunity for a stable production of active metabolites from this species as well as their conservation. The study deals with the optimization of axillary bud proliferation using nodal explants followed by genetic stability analysis of regenerants. Maximum number of shoots (3.66) was observed on the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with Kinetin (2.325 µM) with 85 % shoot multiplication frequency. In vitro grown shoots were rooted best in 1/2 MS medium supplemented with indole-3-butyric acid (2.45 µM) with an average of 6.8 ± 0.79 roots/shoot and 95.5 % rooting frequency. Plantlets were acclimatized best (90 %) in a mixture of sterile sand and farmyard manure (3:1). Micropropagated plants were subjected to random amplified polymorphic DNA analysis and phytochemical analysis to confirm their clonal stability. In RAPD analysis, 1032 amplicons were collectively generated which were monomorphic and similar to the mother plant. The comparable major phytochemical constituents in regenerants and mother plants together with genetic uniformity data obtained from RAPD analysis confirmed clonal fidelity of the regenerants. Findings in this study are the first report on micropropagation and assessment of genetic stability of micropropagated plantlets in H. hookerianum which suggests that in vitro axillary shoot proliferation can effectively be used as a tool for propagation and conservation of H. hookerianum. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
