Abstract

Abstract Nodes from field-grown coppice regrowth and mature trees of Eucalyptus sideroxylon were cultured on a modified Murashige and Skoog medium containing BAP and NAA. BAP (2-4 μm) and NAA (0.5-1.0 μm) were most effective in promoting axillary shoot proliferation from coppice and adult tissues. IBA was more effective than NAA in stimulating the formation of adventitious roots from in vitro-derived shoots. Plantlets from tissue culture were easily transferred to the greenhouse environment. Chemical names used: N6-benzylaminopurine (BAP); 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA); 1H-indole-3-butanoic acid (IBA).
