Apical meristem culture of Eichhornia crassipes has shown that for successful regeneration, the excised meristem dome must be associated with at least the youngest leaf primordium as part of the explant and a culture medium containing coconut milk (10 %, v/v), IAA (0.1 mg/l) and kinetin (1 mg/l) as growth supplements with 2 % sucrose as carbon source.
