โฆ Synopsis
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 for embryos and 4 to 6 cm for inflorescences. Plant regeneration from the subcultured embryogenic callus was attempted monthly using hormone-free MS medium or MS medium with 0.5 mg/1 2,4-D and 0.3 mg/l GA3. Three hundred and fifty seven plantlets were regenerated from the callus cultures of both explant sources during a six month period. Ten chlorophyll deficient plants accounting for 2.8% of the total regenerants were observed. One plant with white striped leaves survived and was found to be an octoploid.

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
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)
