Abstract: Using the tender stem segments of Uncaria rhynchophylla as experimental materials, tissue culture techniques including explant surface sterilization, browning control, callus induction and differentiation, and adventitious root induction were systematically studied. The results showed that the optimal sterilization method for Uncaria rhynchophylla explants was soaking in 75% ethanol for 30 seconds, rinsing with sterile water 3 times, followed by treatment with 0.1% HgCl2 solution for 8 minutes. The addition of 7 mg/L ascorbic acid (VC) effectively reduced explant browning. The optimal medium for callus induction was MS+1.0 mg/L 6-BA+1.5 mg/L 2,4-D; the optimal differentiation medium was MS+0.2 mg/L NAA+2.5 mg/L 6-BA; and the optimal medium for adventitious root induction was 1/2 MS+1.5 mg/L NAA.

Key words: Uncaria rhynchophylla, callus induction, browning, rapid propagation system
