Barbados aloe (Aloe vera (L.) Burm. F.) has traditionally been used for healing in natural medicine. However, aloe is now attracting great interest in the global market due to its bioactive chemicals which are extracted from the leaves and used in industrial preparations for pharmaceutical, cosmetic, and food products. Aloe originated from tropical and sub-tropical Africa, but it is also now cultivated in warm climatic areas of Asia, Europe, and America. In this review, the most important factors affecting aloe production are described. We focus on propagation techniques, sustainable agronomic practices and efficient post harvesting and processing systems.

Micropropagation of Medicinal Plants

Aloe vera is a medicinal plant with several properties and is used in pharmaceutical, medicinal, biomaterials, food, and cosmetic industries. This plant is associated with hot climates and dry habitats, with plantlet production based on lateral shoot propagation, an expansive and slow method, insufficient to meet the increasing demand of the industry. Therefore, the development of a suitable Aloe vera micropropagation protocol is crucial, keeping the genetic integrity and providing largescale plantlets production. Nevertheless, parameters like source of plant tissue, surfacesterilization process, culture medium conditions and plant growth regulator concentration can affect the morphogenic response process. Since all parameters are defined to obtain the best performance, the micropropagation protocol is suitable to be used commercially, providing mass production of Aloe vera plantlets with high quality.
