The influence of phytohormones on Arabidopsis thaliana callus genesis

Phytohormones are the critical media components in determining the developmental pathway of the plant cells. Callus cultures are extremely important in plant biotechnology. Callus cultures can be used for identification of secondary metabolites. A characteristic trait of Arabidopsis thaliana are important secondary metabolites - glucosinolates. The goal of this work was to study the influence of various concentration of phytohormones (2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 6-benzylaminopurine) on Arabidopsis thaliana callus genesis. The results of the investigation have revealed that the most intensive callus genesis was on MS medium with BAP (2.5 mgl-¹)Kauno technologijos universitetasKauno technologijos universitetas, ilona.jonuskiene@ktu.ltLietuvos miškų institutas, sigute.kuusiene@ktu.ltVytauto Didžiojo universiteta
