An efficient method of rapid micropropagation of Solanum khasianum Clarke was successfully established from the leaf, petiole, and nodal explants. The morphogenetic response of different concentrations of TDZ and BAP individually or in combination with auxins (IAA/IBA/2,4-D) was tested. Friable callus was obtained on different concentrations of BAP alone or in combination with IAA/IBA/2,4-D. Rapid multiple shoot induction was achieved from friable callus on MS medium supplemented with varying concentrations of TDZ and IBA. The leaf explants exhibited a high frequency of multiple shoots than petiole and nodal explants with an optimal percentage of response (92.73%), mean shoot number (53.5 ± 0.47), and shoot length (11.2 ± 0.53 cm) on MS medium augmented with TDZ (1.5 mg l⁻¹) and IBA (1.5 mg l⁻¹). Maximum rooting efficiency was achieved on MS medium with 1.5 mg l⁻¹ IBA with 12.8 ± 0.36 mean number of roots. The in vitro rooted plants were acclimatized with a survival rate of 80%. The genetic fidelity of the regenerants assayed by the ISSR and the SCoT markers showed no genetic variation. The study examined the micropropagation responses of S. khasianum in the presence of various growth regulators and provided a simple and more suitable protocol adapted for the mass propagation of clones in this species.
