Other claims from this paper (6)
- Intervention effect Auxin was not obligatory for early callus development of olive in vitro.
- Intervention effect After several subcultures, both an auxin and a cytokinin were needed for olive callus growth.
- Intervention effect 2,4-D was also very active in inducing olive callus growth.
- Intervention effect Very short periods of red-light illumination were sufficient to green olive callus tissue.
- Observation Olive callus under all light conditions tested had a particularly high chlorophyll b/a ratio.
- Intervention effect Light treatments stimulating chlorophyll synthesis reduced olive callus growth after four subcultures.
