Abstract:—Micropropagation was studied of four brometiad plants Aechmea fasciata,Vriesea poelmanii, Cryptanthus zonatus and Neoregelia carolinae, cultured by stem explants.Induction medium of MS+NAA 0.5 mg L-1 + BA 5 mg L-1 led to budding after one or two weeks of culture. MS + BA l mg L-1 +NAA 0.l mg L-1 was the optimum medium in subculture. The optimum concentration of NAA was 0.5 mg L-1 in rooting. Plantlets transplanted oil media contained coconut-bant: sand=1:l or coconut-bant:turf:vermiculite (1 :1 :1) had better survival rate up to 95%
