Abstract
Protoplasts isolated from mesophyll cells of Eruca sativa Lam., cultured on suitable medium, underwent sustained cell divisions to form calli. The plating efficiency was found to be 0.4%. The protoplast-derived calli subsequently produced plantlets through organogenesis (15.71%) and somatic embryogenesis (11.25%). Regenerated plants exhibited normal appearance. These results indicate potential to introgress desirable traits from this wild crucifer into important oilseed and cole Brassicas by protoplast fusion and hybrid recovery.
