Abstract

Inflorencence stalks from greenhouse-grownGladiolus plants of the cultivars ‘Blue Isle’ and ‘Hunting Song’ cultured on a Murashige and Skoog basal salts medium supplemented with 53.6 μM 1-napthaleneacetic acid formed a compact, not friable type of callus that regenerated plantlets. Cormel slices and intact plantlets of three cultivars (‘Peter Pears’, ‘Rosa Supreme’, ‘Jenny Lee’) propagated through tissue culture formed a friable type of callus when cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal salts medium supplemented with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. This friable callus readily formed a cell suspension when the callus was placed in a liquid medium. Plants were regenerated from two-month-old suspension cell cultures of the commercial cultivar ‘Peter Pears’ after the suspension cells had been cultured on solid medium.
