Abstract: Multiple shoots were obtained from shoot tip explant of sugar-cane (Saccharum officinarum) cultured on MS medium supplemented with BAP (0.5-2.0 mg l-1), Kn (0.1-0.5 mg l-1) and IBA (0.1-0.5 mg l-1). Roots were induced in in vitro regenerated shoots on half MS medium supplemented with 5.0 mg l-1 NAA, IBA and IAA. Plant regeneration from shoot tip was the highest on MS medium supplemented with BAP 2.0 mg l-1 and IBA 0.5 mg l-1. The reported experimental findings present a method of plant regeneration of sugar-cane variety Isd 28 through shoot tip culture. The plantlets were successfully transferred to soil and the percentage of survivability under ex vitro condition was 70.
