Abstract: | Gladiolus bud explants propagated in agitated liquid medium, in the presence of the growth retardants daminozide, ancymidol, paclobutrazol or Majic, proliferated into massive bud aggregates without leaves. The buds developed into protocorms and after subculture to agar-solidified medium formed cormlets 8–10 mm in diameter. The corms were not dormant and, after transplanting to pots in the greenhouse, developed into plantlets, 5–6 months after explant isolation. |
