SHOOT REGENERATION FROM PETALS AS A BASIS FOR GENETIC VARIATION AND TRANSFORMATION |
| Authors: | A. Vainstein, M. Fisher, M. Ziv |
| Keywords: | Dianthus caryophyllus, tissue culture, adventitious shoots, β-glucuronidase |
| Abstract:
An efficient procedure for adventitious shoot regeneration from carnation petals was developed as a prelude to the establishment of a transformation system in carnation. Up to seven shoots per petal, in over 90% of the petals used, were obtained. A protocol for the elimination of  -glucuronidase inhibiting compound(s) from carnation leaf extracts is also described.
