Viola caspia subsp. sylvestrioides, a small important medicinal herb, belongs to the subsection Rostratae (sec. Viola) of genus Viola L. This study was performed to develop an efficient protocol for in vitro regeneration of V. caspia subsp. sylvestrioides as an ex situ technique for conservation of endangered plants and extraction of secondary metabolites. Leaf and petiole explants were cultured on half and full-strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with different concentrations a
