Abstract: Along with the increasing social demand for Chinese medicinal plants,it is difficult to meet the market requirement simply by artificial cultivation. In vitro culture of medicinal plants provides an effective way to solve the problem of resources shortage. In this review,the research progress of medicinal plants in vitro culture was summarized,including the progress of callus,the cell culture,the adventitious root induction,and the hair root system. The application of in vitro culture in the field of rapid propagation of medicinal plants,accumulation of active ingredients,biotransformation and secondary metabolic engineering were also analyzed and outlooked.

Key words: Medicinal plant, In vitro culture, Resource protection
