MARINO, Concepción et al. Micropropagation of Glandularia perakii Cov. et Schn. (Verbenaceae): a native species with ornamental potential. Biocell [online]. 2003, vol.27, n.1, pp.57-60. ISSN 0327-9545.

Glandularia perakii is a perennial species with beautiful violet flowers that grows in the stony soil of Mendocine pedemont. A plentiful and prolonged flowering confers it an important ornamental potential. In this paper, a method of propagation of G. perakii from nodal segments is reported. Proliferating microshoot cultures were obtained by placing nodal segment on Murashige and Skoog medium (MS) supplemented with 20 g.L^-1 of sucrose without growth regulators. In this medium multiplication rate after 20 days was 7.9. Rooted plants were acclimatized successfully.
