A sunflower genotype (Helianthus annuus L. cv. Florom-328) able to regenerate plants from in vitro cultures was identified by screening hybrids and inbred lines. Protoplasts of this genotype were isolated from dark grown hypocotyls and were cultured in droplets of agarose-solidified V-KM medium cove

β¦ Synopsis
Protolasts of Bupleurum scorzonerifolium were prepared from stem node-derived embryogenic calli with an enzyeme mixture, in which snailase was a necessary component. Follolwing cell wall regeneration protoplasts divided and directly formed somatic embryos which developed into plantlets. The conditions favorable to direct embryo formation were investigated, and the nature of the callus used for protoplast preparation was found to be a critical factor. The osmotic concentration and the composition of the culture medium including the phytohormone combinations were also important.

Somatic embryos were produced in seven cultivars of Exacum affine Balf. using flower buds and peduncles as explants. Flowering plants were produced from five of the cultivars, and no visible mutations were detected. The best medium for callus induction and growth was MS supplemented with 9.0 ~M 2,4-
Callus was obtained from mericarps of Bunium persicum Boiss. on MS medium supplemented with 2.0 mg/1 2,4-D and 4.0 mg/1 Kn. Small white clumps of compactly packed cells developed on the callus on a medium containing 1.0 mg/1 2,4-D and 0 mg/1 Kn. These cell clumps differentiated numerous globular emb
