Moringa oleifera Lam. tree is considered a miracle tree due to its nutrientrich profile. This plant has been widely cultivated throughout the world for its medicinal and nutritional benefits. Moringa plant contains a significant amount of various phytochemicals such as alkaloids, flavonoids, saponins, tannins, and phenolics that are responsible for their various medicinal, nutritional, and other applications. The use of moringa in pharmacological drugs not only increases cultivation but also increases the over-exploitation of this tree. As the conventional methods of moringa reproduction are not much effective, we require additional alternative strategies to multiply moringa plants. Micro-propagation is considered an effective method to produce a large number of transplants within a short time period. This chapter explores the micro-propagation approaches of M. oleifera together with its nutritional profile and biological activities.
