Abstract
Micropropagation pave the way for multiplication of the plant, which are rare, endangered, threatened and are hard to multiply in natural condition. It plays a vital role in the conservation of plants which are under risk (rare, endangered). Anaphyllum wightii Schott. is an endemic and endangered plant species in Western Ghats of Kanyakumari district belonging to the family Araceae. It is unexplored and known for its therapeutic properties against poisonous bite and inflammation. Tribal communities use these plants as food and also prepare an oil with the addition of some more plants to treat snake bite.
