The objective of this study was to develop an effective method for propagation of avocado. Shoot tips harvested from mature trees of 'G755' rootstock(Persea schiedeana)were used in this study. Salt levels and medium type were tested. The results showed that the survival percentage and the growth of explants were better in the 1/2MS basic medium supplemented with 0.3% sucrose. When these explants was cultured in a medium supplemented with moderate concentrations of IBA and kinetin, the survival percent was 100%. The length of shoot could reach more than 5.1 mm when using 0.5mg/l IBA with 1~4 mg/l kinetin, in the media after 4 weeks culture.
