✦ Synopsis
Plant cell and tissue culture are likely to continue to be of key importance in the application of molecular biology to crop improvement. Strategies to regenerate plants at high efficiency from tissue culture of cereals have been evolving steadily during the past decades (for a review see Morrish et al. 1987;L6rz et al. 1988). In rice, considerable progress has been made in the last decade and plantlets have been regenerated, via organogenesis as well as somatic embryogenesis, from various explants and also from cells and protoplasts (Maheshwari et al. 1990; see also Raina 1989;Bajaj 1991). The response in terms of plantlets regenerated is, however, poor in
