Abstract: | Calli were formed on the explants of midrib, meristem and immature stipe parts from freshly collected Undaria pinnatifida sporophytes. Each part was sterilized by Betadine and ethanol, and was cut into explants. The explants were incubated on an agar medium at 10 hours light and 14 hours dark photoperiod under a photon flux density of 80 µmol m–2 s–1. Callus was formed best on the explants of meristem parts at a temperature of 13 °C on PESI medium. Calli were cut off from the explants and were transferred into a sterile liquid PESI medium in flasks. Callus was dark brown in colour and was composed of well-pigmented cells. The cells were loosely bound and were separated by low power sonication, and were easy to attach to vinylon strings. From the calli formed on the explants of meristem parts, entire fronds were regenerated, but from the calli formed on the explants of midrib parts, only thin layered laminae were regenerated. The calli formed on the explants of immature stipe parts did not exhibit any regeneration at all. |
