Abstract: | Calli from hypocotyl and root explants of Digitalis obscura L. showed regeneration of adventitious shoots, roots and embryos when transferred to Murashige & Skoog medium supplemented with cytokinins alone or in combination with auxins. Optimum shoot-bud formation was achieved in the presence of IAA and BA, while roots mainly appeared either in absence of growth regulators or with IAA and Kn. Embryo formation took place only in those combinations that included Kn. Embryo development was influenced by the type of auxin, and precocious germination occurred in media with NAA. Mechanically isolated cells from hypocotyl- and root-derived calli were plated in MS medium supplemented with several IAA and BA combinations. Single cells were able to proliferate forming callus within 20–30 days in culture. In order to induce organogenesis, calli were transferred to various regeneration media. Shoot-bud differentiation efficiency depended on both callus origin and medium initially used for cell culture, best results being obtained in calli grown from hypocotyl-derived cells cultured in the presence of casein hydrolysate. A further subculture to medium containing coconut milk and lower concentrations of NH4NO3 and sucrose promoted shoot development. Rooting was readily achieved upon transferring shoots onto half-strength MS medium. Plantlets were ultimately established in soil.Abbreviations BA benzyladenine - BM basal medium - CH casein hydrolysate - CM coconut milk - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IAA indoleacetic acid - Kn kinetin - MS Murashige & Skoog - NAA naphthaleneacetic acid |
