Description Manyflower betony (Stachys floridana Schuttl ex Benth) is a specific vegetable variety in China grown for rhizomes. An efficient protocol was developed for plantlet regeneration and in vitro rhizome induction to facilitate germplasm conservation, rapid propagation as well as breeding and production of this species. With this regeneration system, 79.8% of explants produced an average of 5.4 elongated shoots per explant, and 100% of shoots produced roots within 15 days. We also reported an efficient method for rapid in vitro rhizome induction from regeneration plantlets. This simple and efficient plant regeneration and in vitro microrhizome induction system could be useful for propagation of this vegetable and a promising approach to produce metabolites of interest, such as stachyose.
