Somatic Embryogenesis in Strawberry
Omar, Genesia / Mohamed, Fouad / Haench, Klaus
This study was conducted to examine the possibility of inducing somatic embryogenesis in strawberry using tissue culture technique. The process of somatic embryogenesis was further studied utilizing different combinations of plant growth regulators, explants sources and cultivars. Structures resembling somatic embryos were formed at high frequencies from petiole segments on medium amended with 4.0mg/l 2, 4-D+ 0.5mg/l BA + 50 g/l sucrose (Exp1)...
