R. A. de FOSSARD; AUNG MYINT; EDWARD C. M. LEE Physiologia Plantarum 1974. doi:10.1111/j.1399-3054.1974.tb03116.x
Other claims from this paper (4)
- Intervention effect Tobacco calluses formed six main callus types depending on medium composition.
- Intervention effect Nine of 81 media inhibited tobacco callus growth.
- Intervention effect Five media induced tobacco callus regeneration.
- Recommendation The authors suggested the broad spectrum culture experiment as an introductory test for new tissue culture situations.
