Abstract :Staurogyne repens insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(Nees); Kuntze is an aquatic plant belonging to Acanthaceae family. It is a valuable plant in the aquarium industry. Therefore, there has been a significant demand for this plant. This study was designed for multiple and efficient productions of S. repens under in vitro conditions. He used nodal meristems as the type of explant. Nodal meristems were preferred as explant type. The explants were transferred to Murashige and Skoog insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(MS); food media with TDZ single insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0-1.50 mg/L); and TDZ insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.25-1.50 mg/L); + IAA insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(0.25 mg/L); combinations. In TDZ application, the most number of shoots per explant insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(15.36 shoots/explants); was recorded in cultures with 1.50 mg/L TDZ, while in TDZ + IAA application, the most number of shoots insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(9.44 shoots/explants); was determined in culture with 1.0 mg/L TDZ + 0.25 mg/L IAA. In general, shoot lengths in TDZ + IAA combination was measured higher than the single application of TDZ. The longest shoot insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(1.67 cm); was obtained in the culture medium with 1.0 mg/L TDZ + 0.25 mg/L IAA. The extended shoots were transposed to rooting media with 0.25 mg/L IAA, and multiple root formations were determined after four weeks. The rooted plants were transferred to the aquarium and successfully accustomed to ex vitro conditions.
