β¦ Synopsis
Embryogenic callus was initiated from bamboo (Sinocalumus satiflora (Munro) McClure) anthers cultured on N6 medium supplemented with 1 mg/l 2,4-D, 1 mg/l BA, 2 g/l charcoal, 0.8% agar (Sigma) and 9% sucrose. Anthers with microspores at miduninucleate to early-binucleate stages showed better rate of response for callus induction. Prolonged culture of these embryogenic calli on the original medium or subculture to an auxin-free medium resulted in embryoid formation and their subsequent germination to form rooted plantlets. Chromosome counts from root-tip cells of anther-derived plant indicated that they were haploid (N=36).

Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration of Canada wildrye (Elymus canadensis L.) from tissue culture was investigated by culturing immature embryos and inflorescences on MS medium containing 2 mg/l 2,4-D. The optimum size of explants for maximum embryogenic callus formation was 1.0 to 1.5 mm fo
Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration were obtained from immature leaflet callus of chickpea. Numerous globular embryos developed on the surface of callus on Murashige and Skoog's (1962) medium containing 25 ΞΌM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. These globular embryos differentiated into mature
The plant regeneration ability of zygotic embryo-derived callus cultures was studied for 12 A. cepa varieties and accessions, two A. fistulosum varieties, one A. fistulosum x A. cepa interspecific hybrid and two A. porrum varieties. Compact embryogenic callus was induced on Murashige and Skoog (MS)
