Abstract:
High yields of viable protoplasts were obtained from callus cultures derived from shoot apices of Vigna aconitifolia (JACQ) Marechal. The protoplasts divided and formed cell clusters on modified MS medium. The protoplast-derived callus formed multiple shoot buds on MS and B5 basal media without supplements, on MS medium containing supplements and on B5 medium containing charcoal (0.25%). Shoot formation occurred.
