Tissue culture requirements of rambutan were investigated. Initial explants and nodal cuttings were derived from aseptic seedlings which were germinated on nutrient solution (Peter's fertilizer, 20-20-20). The board spectrum experiment consisted of 196 treatment combinations of mineral nutrient (1/2 and 1 x MS), sucrose (2 and 4 percent), indole acetic acid at 0; 1.0; 10 and 100 mg L at the power of -1 or 2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid at 0.10; 1.0 and 10 mg L at the power of -1 and cytokinis (BA and Kinetin) at 0; 0.10; 1.0 and 10 mg L at the power of -1 growth of shoots was observed on 1/2 x MS, 2 percent sucrose, 0-10 mg L at the power of -1 IAA and 0-10 mg L at the power of -1 BA or kinetin. In subsequent experiment, shoot proliferation could be increased to 87 percent on 1/4 x MS, 2 percent sucrose, 1 mg L at the power of -1 and 0.1 mg L at the power of -1 IAA. In vitro shoot formed roots on basal medium
