| Abstract: | Callus cultures were initiated from zygotic embryos of Encephalartos dyerianus and E. natalensis. Callus of both species were transferred onto a modified B5 medium containing different combinations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and kinetin. Somatic embryogenesis and shoot organogenesis occurred in both species. The embryos were dicotyledonary. To date none of the embryos have matured.Abbreviations ABA
