Abstract: | Protoplasts were isolated from leaves, shoots, cotyledons, ray florets and callus cultures of Dimorphotheca aurantiaca (syn. D. sinuata) (Cape Marigold, Star of the Veldt) and Rudbeckia hirta, R. laciniata and R. purpurea; species of ornamental value. For Dimorphotheca, plants were regenerated from protoplasts of all sources apart from the ray floret, whilst for the Rudbeckia species, although protoplast division was induced in most cases, only leaf mesophyll protoplasts of R. hirta c.v. Marmalade gave plants. The establishment of plant regeneration for these ornamental species, from protoplasts, now provides a basis for their somatic hybridisation.Abbreviations BAP
