Abstract

 Endangered medicinal plants face threats of extinction due to habitat destruction, overexploitation, and environmental degradation. To conserve and sustainably utilize these valuable plant species, efficient propagation methods are essential. Plant tissue culture offers a promising solution by providing a controlled environment for rapid multiplication of endangered medicinal plants. This research paper aims to review and optimize tissue culture techniques for the propagation of endangered medicinal plants, focusing on factors such as explant selection, culture media composition, growth regulators, and environmental conditions. By optimizing these parameters, it is possible to enhance the efficiency of tissue culture protocols, leading to higher propagation rates and improved conservation outcomes for endangered medicinal plants
