Other claims from this paper (9)
- Observation Beta vulgaris callus produced roots, shoots and somatic embryos.
- Intervention effect Growth hormones, rather than basal media, determined callus morphogenetic potential.
- Intervention effect Auxin alone induced root formation in Beta vulgaris callus.
- Intervention effect Auxin plus cytokinin produced infrequent bud formation, at most 12%.
- Intervention effect Anti-auxin plus cytokinin produced regular bud formation at 52%.
- Intervention effect About 95% of transferred shoots rooted on rooting medium.
- Observation Meristematic zones formed before shoot primordia developed in callus.
- Mechanism Multiple hormonal sequences were necessary to induce and develop somatic embryos.
- Intervention effect Cotyledonary embryos developed into normal plants on hormone free basal medium.
