Description An efficient cryopreservation technique for in vitro grown shoots of ginger (Zingiber
nlJicinale Rosc) was developed hased on encapsulation dehydration, encapsulation
vitrification and vitrification procedures. Pregrowth and serial preculture were needed to obtain the best regrowth for all techniques. The vitrification procedure resulted in higher regrowth (80%) when compared to encapsulation vitrification (66%) and encapsulation dehydration (41 %). In the vitri fication procedure shoots were: precultured in liquid Murashige-Skoog medium containing 0.3 M sucrose for 3 days; cryoprotected with a mixture of 5% DMSO and 5% glycerol for 20 min at room temperature: osmoprotected with a mixture of 2 M glycerol and OA M sucrose for 20 min at 25°C; before being dehydrated with a highly concentrated vitrification solution (PVS2) for 40 min at 25°C The dehydrated shoots were transferred to 2 ml cryotubes, suspended in I ml PVS2 and plunged directly into liquid nitrogen. In all the three cryopreservation procedures tested, shoots grew from cryopreserved
shoot tips without intermediary callus formation. The genetic stability of cryopreserved ginger shoot huds were confirmed using ISSR and RAPD profiling.
