The present study focuses on developing an efficient and reproducible in vitro micropropagation protocol for Bambusa vulgaris through nodal explants and assessing the genetic fidelity of regenerated plantlets using Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers. Multiple shoot induction was achieved using Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations and combinations of cytokinins and auxins.
