Abstract: Shoot tip culture of BARI banana 1 (Musa sp.) were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg L^-1 BAP for shoot proliferation. Well-developed shoots were used for rooting. Among the six different concentrations of IBA (0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, 0.5, 0.6 mg L^-1) with half strength MS medium, a good number of healthy roots were produced on half MS+0.5 mg L^-1 IBA (7.86) followed by half MS+0.6 mg L^-1 IBA (6.89) and half MS+0.4 mg L^-1 IBA (6.31) with the weight of 0.85, 0.83 and 0.77 g plantlet^-1, respectively. However, 95-100% plantlets were survived when they were transferred to small plastic pots after 15-20 days in vitro culture on half MS medium supplemented with 0.4–0.6 mg L^-1 IBA and 7 days hardening at room temperature.
