Abstract
This report deals with an exotic graminaceous plant, Vetiveria zizanioides (L.) Stapf., a species of great economical and ecological interest, owing to its root essential oil of value in perfume industry and for its potential as a tool against soil erosion.
An in vitro procedure of cell culture and plant regeneration has been developed to produce selected plants with an high C4 photosynthetic efficiency.

The experimental results and the phenologic characteristics of V. zizanioides strongly support plant spreading in temperate and Mediterranean countries, where vetiver grass could find several applications in environmental engineering and bioremediation.
