The in vitro development of isolated rye proembryos

Barbara Stefaniak

Abstract


Isolated 7 day-old rye proembryos, 130-150 µm long, which were inoculated directly onto a medium, degenerated by 100%. Proembryos of the same size, introduced into culture using nurse endosperm, survived by 74%, from which 64% developed normally, giving green and rooted plants.

Keywords
