β¦ Synopsis
Excised lateral buds o f taro [Colocasia esculenta var. esculenta (L.) A . F . Hill] developed into plantlets and f o r m e d callus if cultured on m e d i a containing taro extract. ~-Naphthaleneacetic acid enhanced the process but only if taro extract was also present. The tissue requirements for this variety o f taro are different from those o f Colocasia esculenta var. antiquorum (L.) A . F . Hill.

Axillary buds of taro (Colocasia esculenta var. esculenta, Araceae) cultured on half strength Murashige-Skoog medium (HMS) containing taro extract (HMSTE) and 2, 4, 5-trichlorophenoxyacetic acid produce a compact, hard, slow growing callus which is not very active morphogenetically and produces only
Multiple shoots have developed from axillary buds excised from in vitro grown seedlings of Acacia auriculiformis on Gamborg's (B5) basal medium supplemented with coconut milk (5 or 10%) and benzylaminopurine (10-6M). These shoots, if transferred individually to indole-3-acetic acid (10 7M) or naphth
The torosa-2 tomato mutant is characterized by a strong inhibition of release of axillary shoots, that is not under the control of the main apex and IAA . Microscopic examination indicated that about 70% of leaf axils do not have axillary buds . Of the growth regulators tested, gibberellic acid and
