| description | <i>Stevia rebaudiana</i> Bertoni is a valuable plant whose products are increasingly used in medicine, pharmacy and the food industry. This necessitates the use of biotechnological approaches for its mass propagation. Establishing optimal conditions for <i>in vitro</i> cultivation is essential for obtaining high biomass and secondary metabolites production. A large number of articles considering the role of plant growth regulators and other additives in the culture medium in the growth and development of <i>Stevia</i> are available in the literature. However, there are no summarized data about the use of nanoparticles in <i>Stevia</i> tissue cultures. Therefore, this review also includes the research conducted so far on the effect of nanoparticles on <i>Stevia</i> micropropagation. Furthermore, the influence of different elicitors on secondary metabolite production and antioxidant activity of <i>in vitro</i>-cultivated <i>Stevia</i> plants have been discussed. By referring to the collected literature, we concluded that biotechnological approaches applied to <i>S. rebaudiana</i> cultivation might improve the agronomic traits of plants and steviol glycosides production. |
