This experiment was conducted to establish the micropropagation of Calanthe discolor through multiple shoot formation from the culture of leaf, corm and root explants. Frequency of adventitious shoot formation from leaf explants was higher than those of corms and root explants. Frequency of adventitious shoot formation on medium with various concentrations of BA (0. 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 mg/L) and NAA (0, 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 mg/L) was tested. The maximun induction of adventitious shoot was obtained on half strength Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 3.0 mg/L BA and 1.0 mg/L NAA after 6 weeks of culture. Multiple shoots were transferred onto half strength MS medium with various concentrations of GA3 (0, 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, 3.0, and 5.0 mg/L). The number and length of multiple shoots on medium were highest on medium with 3.0 mg/L GA3. All the adventitious shoot grew well and rooted on half strength MS medium with 3.0 mg/L NAA. The plantlets were acclimatized up to 100% on sand with TKS-II or pearlite with TKS-II.

Micropropagation of Ulmus davidiana Planch was established via adventitious shoot formation from the segments of adventitious roots. Adventitious roots were produced directly from root segments of seedlings on a 1/2 SH medium plus various concentrations of IBA. The maximum growth of adventitious roots was observed in the presence of 2.0 mg/L IBA. After the segments of adventitious roots were cultured on various cytokinins (zeatin, 2-iP, BA, kinetin) and cytokinins plus auxin (IBA), formation of adventitious shoot was investigated. Among cytokinin treated, kinetin was the most effective on both adventitious shoot induction and number of shoots. Especially, 2.0 mg/L kinetin was the best to increase adventitious shoot induction (95.8%) and a number of shoots (8.4). Adventitious shoots were rooted on 1/2 WPM medium and the plantlets were acclimated 100% on composed soil (peatmoss : vermiculite 1 : 1).

Immature flowers and lateral buds of Neoregeria carorinae cv. Tricolor were cultured for micropropagation and the collecting times of materials, growth regulators and theirs concentrations, and cultural methods on the formation of adventitious buds and growth were investigated in this experiment The formation rate was the highest in immature flowers collected at 4weeks after flower bud differentiation and in buds at 7weeks after flower differentiation of adventitious buds. MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg/L BA and 0.5 mg/L BA was the most favorable for the formation of adventitious buds. Solid medium was more effective for the formation of adventitious buds than liquid one. MS medium with 1.0 mg/L NAA was the most suitable for the rooting of regenerated shoot. Liquid medium was effective for the rooting of regenerated shoot than solid one.

This study was carried out to establish a reproducible culture system for callus formation and adventitious shoot development from young stem segments of Vigna radinta, and histological work for orgin of callus tissue and adventitious shoot. Induction of callus from young stem explants of Vigna radiata was very effective on MS inorganic salts supplemented with 0.5 mg/L 2,4-D and 1.0 mg/L kinetin. For the adventitious shoot regeneration from the callus tissues, the hormone combination of 0.75 mg/L NAA, 1.5 mg/L kinetin and MS salts resulted in about 21% efficiency. Histological examination showed that callus tissues originated from out-growths by callus cambium rings with do novo meristematic activities, which were localized at the outside of the vascular cambium. Adventitious shoots were developed from shoot apical meristem originated from the surface of callus masses. The shoot apical meristem produced leaf primordium, which then became leaf.

Cacalia firma recently has been used increasingly as leaf vegetables but endangered in natural forest. In this work, we established the plant regeneration via adventitious shoot formation from petiole segments of seedling and in vitro plantlets. Wounding of seed coats and $GA_3$ treatments were effective to induce in vitro germination of seeds, whereas, seed did not germinate at all without these treatment. When cotyledon, leaf, petiole, and root segments of seedling were cultured on medium with 2 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ benzyl adenine (BA) and 0.5 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), petiole segments showed highest number of shoots per explant among the other segments. Among the various kinds of cytokinins, BA, isopentyl adenine (2-ip), kinetin, zeatin, thidiazuron (TDZ), TDZ and BA treatments were effective to induce high frequency of adventitious shoot formation from petiole segments of in vitro propagated plants. NAA stimulated the frequency of adventitious shoot formation but not for number of adventitious shoots per explants compared to TDZ or BA treatment alone. Most of adventitious shoots were developed directly from surfaces of explants. Adventitious shoots were transferred on medium with IBA for root formation, thereafter the plantlets were successfully transferred to soil.

Leaf and petiole explants of Pulsatilla koreana NAKAI were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of zeatin, kinetin or BAP combined with 0.05 mg/L IAA. After 6 weeks of culture, effects of cytokinin on adventitious shoot formation from explants were investigated. The highest frequency of shoot formation was obtained when petiole explants were cultured on medium with 0.5 mg/L zeatin and 0.05 mg/L IAA. Regenerated shoot were transferred on to root induction medium. The best root formation was observed at 1/2 MS medium with 1.5 mg/L NAA. Rooted plantlets were transplanted to a mixture of perlit and soil (1:3), where they were successfully acclimatized.

An efficient procedure was developed for adventitious shoot bud induction and plantlet regeneration from various explants of the ten genotypes of Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) using Thidiazuron (TDZ). Among various treatments at 1.0-3.0 mg/L TDZ Induced maximum number of adventitious shoots depending upon the explant type and genotype compared to other treatments. Among the explants tested, leaf induced maximum number of adventitious shoots than the cotyledons. TDZ-mediated organo-genesis was possible in 10 pepper cultivars, the extent of the response being genotype-dependent. Of the ten genotypes tested, C. annuum cvs CA960, $G_4$ and X-235 were produced maximum number of adventitious shoots and Sell was the least, and all other genotypes gave moderate response. Elongation of multiple shoots was observed on medium supplemented with SA (0.05 mg/L) in combination of IAA (0.05 mg/L). Differences in ability for in vitro shoot regeneration and elongation depend upon the variety and explant type. The elongated shoots were success. Fully rooted on MS medium containing at 1.0 mG/L IAA. Plantlets regenerated from different explants of ten genotypes were found to be diploid (2n=24) and were devoid of any chromosomal aberrations. Regenerated plants were successfully established in soil where 85-90% of them developed into morphologically normal and fertile plants.

The effect of auxins and cytokinins on the formation of adventitious shoots, adventitious roots, trichomes, and calli in MS basal medium was investigated in leaf segments from ecotype Columbia of Arabidopsis thaliana. Adventitious shoots, adventitious roots, trichome, and calli were formed from leaf segments by a wide range of hormone concentrations and combinations. Adventitious shoots were formed respectively in treatment with 0.1mg/L IAA and 10 mg/L BA. Adventitious roots were formed in treatments with low concentration of IAA and NAA. Trichomes and calli were formed by increasing the concentration of IAA and NAA. The optimal combination was 0.5mg/L NAA and 0.1mg/L BA for trichome formation, 10mg/L NAA and 10mg/L BA for calli formation. When NAA was treated alone in culture media, adventitious roots were formed in 0.1mg/L, trichomes were formed in 2.0mg/L, and calli were formed in 10mg/L. Inductive time for formation of adventitious roots, trichomes and calli were determined at 6,7 and 18 days respectively by periodical transfer of leaf segments from NAA containing medium to NAA free medium.

Adventitious shoots were directly induced from leaf explants of R. glutinosa, an important medicinal plant. Proliferating shoot cultures were obtained by culturing leaf discs on Murashige and Skoog(MS) medium alone or combination with auxins and cytokinins. MS medium supplemented with 1 $mg/{\ell}\;BA\;and\;2\;mg/{\ell}$ IAA was the most effective, providing high shoot bud formation frequency without formation of intervening callus. The effect of leaf age on adventitious shoot formation was also investigated. The maximum shoot bud production (93.4%) was achived using 3rd leaf from apex of 6 weeks old plantlets after seed germination. Plantlet were rooted on an half-strength MS (1/2MS) medium containing 0.1 $mg/{\ell}\;IBA$. This prtocol is useful for clonal propagation and Agrobacterium-mediated transforamtion in R. glutinosa.

This study was investigated to establish a regeneration system of plant via adventitious bud formation from leaf explant cultures of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch). Effects of plant growth regulators (2,4-D, BAP), agar sucrose and myo-inositol on adventitious bud formation were investigated. When the leaf explants were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 0.1 mg/L 2,4-D and 3 mg/L BAP, the adventitious bud formation was most promoted. The adventitious bud formation was not induced from leaf explants cultured on MS medium containing 2,4-D alone. Adventitious bud formation was enhanced to almost 3 times on medium with low level of agar concentration (0.4%) in comparison with those on the medium with high level of agar (1%), but almost of shoot was vitrificated on the medium. Therefore, the normal adventitious bud formation from leaf explants was most effective on the medium containing 0.05 mg/L 2,4-D,1 mg/L BAP, 0.8% agar, 30 g/L sucrose and 100 mg/L myo-inositol. Thus, the mass propagation of healthy strawberry could be established using leaf explants.
