Tokyo Kokei Standard Decotylated embryo culture --> Callus and various forms of protuberances

Copyright 1998-2017 Yoshiaki Yoneda

After removing the cotyledons surgically from the embryo of a cotyledon stage one week after fertilization and culturing a hypocotyl including a radicle, a callus occurred from a cut end, and projections of various shapes (tubes, cups, bars) arose from the border region of a callus and a hypocotyl. With this technique, you don't need to add any particular hormone to agar nutrient medium.
