The propagation of artichoke via tissue culture offers considerable advantages. However one of the most important problem is </span> <i> <span style="font-size:14px;">in vitro </span> </i> <span style="font-size:14px;"> rooting. Therefore, the main purpose of the present study was to develop an effective protocol on </span> <i> <span style="font-size:14px;">in vitro </span> </i> <span style="font-size:14px;"> rooting of ‘Bayrampaşa’ cultivar which is one of the important local artichoke cultivar. To serve the purpose, after a successful micropropagation process, involving 3 subculture stages, well-developed plantlets were selected and rooted in different media compositions as ten different media including control group were used in present study. The differences between the media were provided by adding different growth regulators such as </span> </span> <span style="font-size:8pt;" lang="en-us" xml:lang="en-us"> <span style="font-size:14px;">10.0 mg l </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">-1 </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;"> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">6.0 mg l </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">-1 </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;"> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">indole butyric acid (IBA), </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">5.0 mg l </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">-1 </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;"> </span> <span> <span style="font-size:14px;">gibberellic acid (GA </span> <sub> <span style="font-size:14px;">3 </span> </sub> <span style="font-size:14px;">), </span> </span> <span style="font-size:14px;">0.5 mg l </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">-1 </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;"> </span> <span> <span style="font-size:14px;">naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and activated charcoal (0, 1.0 and 2.0 g l </span> <sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">-1 </span> </sup> <span style="font-size:14px;">).
