Freezing tolerance was induced in microspore derived embryos of winter Brassica napus cv. Jet neuf by the addition of ABA or mefluidide to the culture media during embryogenesis. Survival after freezing was estimated by culture of frozen-thawed embryos to plantlets. A higher freezing tolerance (50%
Microspore-derived embryos from Brassica napus L. were dried to less than 15% moisture and stored dry for a minimum of 7 days. Successful plant regeneration was observed when embryos at the cotyledonary stage of development were treated with 50 uM ABA for 7 days prior to desiccation. Solid agar or l
