In vitro propagation of Bryum coronatum has been done by using spores as explants. A full differentiation of protonema into well developed gametophytes along with development of gametangia (antheridia) has been achieved by inoculating a range of concentration of inorganic media supplemented with and without sucrose under laboratory conditions. In vitro raised plants were acclimatized and transferred to soil in order to their further proliferation.
