A new method for solid medium plant tissue culture based on in situ gelation of alginate is proposed as an alternative to agar-based media. In situ gelation by the use of dispersed CaCO3 and the slowly hydrolysing acid glucono-6-1actone (GDL) was the basis for the use of alginate as a gelling agent.
