Abstract :
Aloe (Aloe littoralis) is important clinically and economically. This plant is native in Iran and natural and traditional of proliferation is very slow, in the result, needs of medicinal industry do not prepare. Aloe (A. littoralis) can proliferate from micropropagation technique rapidly. The subject of project is micropropagation of Aloe (A. littoralis) native in Iran. The terminal and axillary buds of explants cultured on media culture, MS with BAP (0.5 , 1, 2 mg/l) and IAA (0.5 , 1 mg/l). The largest number of shoot (1.25) and the highest length of shoot (1.13 cm) produced on MS medium culture with BAP (2 mg/l) and IAA (0.5 mg/l), the largest number of leaves (1.25) and root (2.32) and the highest length of root (4.66 cm) produced on MS medium culture with BAP (0.5 mg/l) and IAA (0.5 mg/l). Aloe micropropagation used low concentration of hormones, mother plants are native in south of Iran region, medicinal properties are common with aloe vera (Aloe barbedensis). In the results, cost of production is low and is better economically.
