Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plants were regenerated through organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis in cotyledon and hypocotyl cultures. The shoots were efficiently formed on the basal region of cotyledons cultured on MS medium containing 1.0㎎/L zeatin and 0.1㎎/L IAA in all cultivars used. Embryogenic calli were formed on hypocotyl segments cultured on MS medium containing 1.0㎎/L 2,4-D in cv. group 'Nakhab' and maintained by consecutive subculture on the same medium every 2-3 weeks without loss of embryogenic ability. Upon transfer to MS basal medium, high frequency somatic embryogenesis was achieved easily from embryogenic callus. Regenerated plantlets through organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis were transplanted to pots and gradually acclimatized to greenhouse condition where they subsequently produced fruits.

Cotyledonary and hypocotyl explants of melon seedlings were cultured on Murashige and Skoog's (MS) medium supplemented with various concentrations of 2,4-Dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and benzyladenine (B.A).Up to 22% of cotyledonary explants and 7%, of hypocotyl explants, respectively: Produced somatic embryos through intervening two types of calli: bright yellow compact (BYC) callus and pale-yellow compact (PYC) callus. BYC callus was capable of producing somatic embryos at initial culture, but it became necrotic as subrulhues proceeded. In contrast UC callus was incapable of producing somatic embryos during initial culture (first 6 weeks), but it became bright-yellow friable (BYF) callus with forming a few globular embryos after 2 months of subculture, indicating that the callus turned embryogenic. The embryogenic capacity of BYF maintained for over one year when the callus was sucultured at 4-week interval. Upon transfer onto MS basal medium the callus gave rise to numerous somatic embryos and subsequently converted to plantlets. Plantlets were transplanted to potting soil and grown to maturity in the phyotron.

An efficient transformation system for the production of transgenic plants has been developed for tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) via Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of seed-derived callus. From the point of morphogenetic capacity, three types of callus were selected. High frequency of plant regeneration was obtained by selection of type II callus, and the plant regeneration frequency was 52.6% when embryogenic callus were cultured on the regeneration medium. Supplementation of the media with 10 mg/L $AgNO_3$ and 40 mg/L cysteine enhanced frequencies of plant regeneration up to 65.3%. The highest transformation efficiency was also obtained when type II callus were inoculated with Agrobacterium. Southern blot analysis of PCR products of transgenic plants demonstrated that transgenes were successfully integrated into the genome of tall fescue. Efficient regeneration system and transformation established in this study will be useful for molecular breeding of tall fescue through genetic transformation.

This study was carried out to improve the ability of embryo formation and the efficiency of plant regeneration from suspension cultured cells of seed derived calli of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.). The frequency of formation of round cell and cell colonies was highest at 50 days after suspension culture in $N_6$ medium supplemented with $4\;g/{\ell}$ casein hydrolysate (CH), $20\;g/{\ell}$ sucrose and $30\;g/{\ell}$ sorbitol. The highest frequency of plant regeneration and somatic embryo formation was obtained from suspension cultured cells of 60 days. Addition of CH ($4\;g/{\ell}$) in suspension culture medium gave the highest frequency of embryo formation (39.6%) and plant regeneration (73.0%).

In order to establish an efficient adventitious shoot regeneration conditions from leaf explants for Asian pear 'Whangkeumbae', the effect of concentration and kinds of plant growth regulator and carbon source was investigated. Leaf explants of cultures grown on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 8 g/L plant agar were used. When the medium contained 0.25 mg/L thidiazuron (TDZ) and 0.3 mg/L indolebutyric acid (IBA), the adventitious shoot regeneration rate (ASRR) was greater as 61.1% than others treated and higher TDZ concentrations (2.5 and 5 mg/L) treatment significantly reduced the ASRR. As the effect of IBA and indoleacetic acid (IAA) concentration on the ASRR, 0.5 mg/L TDZ plus different concentration of IAA exhibited relatively high ASRR and 0.5 mg/L TDZ plus 0.3 mg/L IAA showed the highest ASRR of 76.7%. Also the effect of sucrose and sorbitol as carbon source on regeneration was examined. The highest ASRR and the most shoots per explants averaged 94.4% and 3.49 by treatment of 30 mg/L sorbitol, respectably. Sorbitol is considered better carbon source than sucrose for shoot regeneration of 'Whangkeumbae' pear.

We examined the effect of carbon sources on the regeneration and ex vitro acclimatization of Lycopus lucidus Turcz. ex Benth. Plantlets were regenerated on the 1/2MS medium supplemented with different concentrations (3 ~ 10%) of sucrose and glucose. The sucrose concentrations of 3% and 5% that were supplied enhanced shoot multiplication and rooting but hampered high concentration growth (including the length of the shoot and root). During ex vitro acclimatization, the tuberization of the root, the root length, the shoot length and the survival rate of Lycopus lucidus plantlets grown using 3% and 5% sucrose were found to be better than the other carbon sources and concentrations. Thus a sucrose concentration of 3% and 5% in the 1/2MS medium appeared to be better for both in vitro growth and ex vitro acclimatization of Lycopus lucidus.

Conditions for efficient organogenesis and plant regeneration from Dianthus gratianopol suspension cultured cells were established. Shoot-forming calli of glossy surface, pale green and knobby type were selected from leaf explant-derived calli and were suspension-subcultured every week in CP liquid medium with 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP. Combinations of 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP, and 1.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 0.5 mg/L BAP were effective for the induction of regenerative callus from the suspension cultured cell clusters. Multiple shoot primordia were initiated from the green spots of these regenerative callus and formed shoots on MS medium with 1.0 mg/L TDZ and 0.5 mg/L PAA. Shoot regeneration frequency (calli regenerating at least one shoot) was about 87%. For plant regeneration, proliferated shoots were excised and transferred to MS medium with 0.1 mg/L NAA for root initiation after 9 weeks of culture. The regenerants were potted in soil and formed the flowering buds and petals. Also, adventitious shoots were formed from the excised green shoot primordia of regenerative callus and these shoots proliferated successfully and regenerated to whole plants.
