β¦ Synopsis
Stable cell suspension cultures were established from two types of calli (one compact, nodular and embryogenic, the other friable and embryogenic) derived from cultured immature embryos of wheat (cv FLA302). Only aged calli, which had been subcultured for at least 5-8 months, formed suspensions comprised mainly of groups of small, round, densely cytoplasmic, starch-containing cells. Only the embryogenic suspension derived from the aged, compact and nodular callus formed distinct somatic embryos when plated on regeneration media containing IAA and zeatin. Upon subsequent transfer to fresh regeneration medium more than 200 green rooted plants were obtained.

A study was set up to determine the inheritance and combining ability of the factors anther culture response and green plant regeneration. Reciprocal crosses were made between cultivar 'Ringo Sztar', showing high anther culture response and the cultivars 'Ciano 067' and 'Benoist H77022', showing a h
Four winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and two spring wheat cultivars were evaluated in anther culture on three to four different media for their ability to initiate callus and green plants. Five media were used in the experiment: stored-potato medium with Ficoll 400, fresh-potato medium with Fico
Protoplasts isolated from embryogenic ('Mustang' and 'Chinese Spring') and non-embryogenic ('Mit') calli of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) genotypes transiently expressed Ξ²-glucuronidase (GUS) activity when electroporated with a plasmid containing the GUS gene and driven by an enhanced 35S promoter an
