Abstract
Pteris vittata L. has emerged as a prominent arsenic hyperaccumulator, holding immense potential for phytoremediation strategies aimed at mitigating arsenic contamination in the environment. in vitro culture of explants obtained from rhizome, crozier portion of juvenile leaf and fully expanded young leaf of Pteris vittata L on MS medium supplemented with different concentration of auxins and cytokinin of all combination studied. In Pteris vittata L. shoot is formed in 2, 4-D plus BAP and NAA plus BAP combinations. Through an in-depth examination of tissue culture techniques and growth regulator utilization in the context of Pteris vittata L., this paper aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on sustainable and effective strategies for remediating arsenic-contaminated environments.
