Description Ginger anthers collected at the uninucleate micros pore stage were subjected to a cold treatment (0°) for 7 d and induced to develop profuse callus on MS medium supplemented with 2-3 mg I-I 2.4-0. PlantIets could be regenerated from these calli on MS medium supplemented with 5-10 mg 1-1 BAP and 0.2 mg 1-1 2,4-0. The regenerated plantlets could be established in soil with 85% success, when they were planted in potting mixture of garden soil. sand and vermiculite in equal proportions and kept in a humid chamber initially for 22-30 d. This is the first report of successful regeneration of plants from ginger anther cultures and the protocol can be used for possible development of androgenic haploids and dihaploids in ginger.
