  • Title: Green and non-green callus induction from excised rice (Oryza sativa) embryos: effects of exogenous plant growth regulators.
    Author: Kim D, Brock TG, Kaufman PB.
    Journal: PGRSA Q; 1992; 20(4):189-99. PubMed ID: 11537753.
    Abstract:
    Calli were induced either from excised rice embryos or from whole seeds in the presence of 1 to 5 mg l-1 NAA. After 12 days of culture, calli were induced only from excised rice embryos. We found that excised embryos accumulated NAA up to 6 times higher concentration than did whole seeds. In the presence of 1 to 5 mg l-1 NAA and 2 to 10 mg l-1 kinetin, chlorophyllous calli were induced from excised rice embryos. Chlorophyll contents in the callus tissue increased with increasing kinetin concentration while percent callus induction decreased. The total chlorophyll content was linearly correlated with the ratio of kinetin to NAA in the medium.
