Abstrakt     A new and unique shoot regeneration from the scales of Platycerium bifurcatum is described, and the effect of 1, 2, or 3% sucrose on regeneration is studied. Scales detached from 3-5 month old plants grown in vitro on medium without growth regulators, were used as initial explants. After 30 days of culture, 45 to 60% of scales developed adventitious shoots. After 60 days, 90 to 100% of scales developed shoots with leaves, and some of them developed roots. Sucrose did not affect the number of shoots formed on the scales, but did affect further development of shoots, roots, and also fresh and dry weights of scales with shoots. Shoot regeneration from scales also represents a good system for studying the early stages of morphogenesis.
