Somatic embryogenesis in leaf tissue culture of Soapberry (Sapindus mukorossi Gaertn.)

open access: yesPlant Biotechnology, 2012
Leaf explants formed embryogenic calluses at a frequency of 53.9% when cultured on B5 media supplemented with 0.1 mg l 1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4- ) and 0.01 mg l 1 6-benzyladenine (BA) for 6 weeks. Upon transfer onto media with 5 mg l 1 abscisic acid, embryogenic calluses yielded somatic embryos at 73%.
