Cultivation of plants in vitro is currently one of the most common methods of vegetative propagation of plants. It makes it possible to obtain homogeneous planting material in large quantities within a short time, on small areas, and at relatively low cost; to preserve particularly valuable pheno- and genotypes, or to obtain biologically active substances of plant origin. The use of microclonal plant propagation is an excellent complement to the conservation of critical species that are endangered in their natural habitats or have difficult generative reproduction. The main goal of our research сlarification the peculiarities of tissue culture of three rare and endangered species of the Hungarian flora, viz. Dianthus plumarius ssp. praecox (Willd. ex Spreng.) Domin, Dianthus giganteiformis Borbás ssp. pontederae (Borbás) Soó, and Dianthus superbus L. Healthy and viable seeds were used as initial explants. The sterilising reagents used were different concentrations of mercuric hippochloride (HgCl2), sodium chloride (NaClO) and commercial chloramine B (NH2Cl). Subsequently, the plants were grown on Murashige and Skoog agarified hormone-free medium. It was established that for the seeds of the three researched carnation taxa, sterilization with 2,5% chloramine B for 15 minutes is the most optimal, this ensures obtaining aseptic planting material capable of intensive germination and formation of viable explants. For the induction of rhizogenesis, the most optimal is a modified MS medium with the addition of indolylacetic acid at a concentration of 0,1 mg/l. Plants grown under such conditions are easily and with a high probability acclimatized to aseptic growth conditions.
