Abstract: | Callus induction was obtained on Murashige and Skogg agar medium with 45 M 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid under dark at 25°C. Among the four explant types investigated, the best callus induction was obtained from two-week old fronds to which a surgical incision was applied in the basal (meristematic) region. This treatment resulted in 89.11% of fronds producing callus which continued to proliferate for another 24 months. To obtain plant regeneration pieces of calluses were transferred onto Murashige and Skoog agar medium containing 22 M indole-3-acetic acid and 4.6 M kinetin and maintained under 16-h photoperiod (irradiance of 30 mol m–2 s–1) at 23°C. Green fronds formed on all callus pieces. The regenerated fronds were later transferred onto Wang medium where they formed roots. The regenerated Lemna minor L. plants obtained through indirect organogenesis did not differ morphologically from individuals forming the stock collection. |
