Induction of somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration of sugarcane cv. RB925345 from somatic embryos

The aim of this study was to establish a protocol for induction of somatic embryogenesis and regeneration of somatic embryos of sugarcane (cultivar RB925345). Best results was obtained using the concentration of 13.5 µM L-1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid, 45 days of incubation in induction medium, one subculture and 15 days of incubation in regeneration medium, providing 47.5% of embryogenic calli and 38.9% of plants regenerated. Adjust are necessary in this protocol to increase the rate of embryogenic calli production and regeneration of somatic embryos.The aim of this study was to establish a protocol for induction of somatic embryogenesis and regeneration of somatic embryos of sugarcane (cultivar RB925345).
