Abstract: | Summary InBetula platyphylla var.japonica, colonies were induced efficiently from mesophyll protoplasts cultured in half strength MS (1/2MS) liquid medium containing 0.6 M mannitol, 0.09M sucrose and 1 M 4-PU and 1 M NAA at a cell density of 5 × 104/ml. The colonies grew actively and developed into callus after 3 months of culture.Roots differentiated from the protoplast-derived white calluses cultured on the 1 /2MS solid media supplemented with 0.1–1 M 4-PU and 1 M NAA, and 10 M zeatin with no supplementation of NAA. Furthermore, the protoplast-derived green callus differentiated shoots with 1/2MS solid medium containing 1 M 4-PU or 10 M zeatin with no supplementation of NAA. When shoots obtained were cultured on the cytokinin-free MS solid medium with 2.5 M IBA and 0.1 M NAA, they rooted and developed into plantlets after one month of culture.The phenylurea-type cytokinin, 4-PU, was effective for plantlet regeneration from the mesophyll protoplasts ofB. platyphylla var.japonica. This suggests that there is potential for the use of 4-PU in the culture of protoplasts in many forest tree species.Abbreviations BAP 6-benzylaminopurine - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - FDA fluorescein diacetate - IBA indole-3-butyric acid - 2ip N6-(2-isopentenyl)-adenine - NAA 1-naphthaleneacetic acid - 4-PU N-(2-chloro-4-pyridyl)-N–phenylurea - TDZ thidiazuron |
