To examine the morphogenetic response, stem segments of 8 Populus spp. and 3 different explants of P. nigra var. italica were cultured on MS (Murashige and Skoog 1962) and WPM (Woody Plant Medium) medium containing various phytohormones. The results obtained were as follows: 1. Shoot regeneration and development from stem segment of 8 Populus spp. showed a quite difference according to the section and the species. All of the species of Leuce and Tacamahaca section did not form adventitious buds, while most of explants showed axillary or dormant bud elongation after 4 weeks. But P. nigra var. italica of Aigeiros section showed a successful adventitious bud formation (mean 5.4 buds per explant). 2. Leaf, petiole, and internode segment of P. nigra var. italica showed a quite differences according to media and ex plants upon the morphogenetic response. Adventitious bud formation from leaf was more abundant and readily initiated on the abaxial side than on the adaxial side. Mean number of 103 adventitious buds per explant was obtained from abaxial side of leaf segment cultured on WPM medium containing $0.2mg/{\ell}$ BAP for 5 weeks. 3. 2,4-D (2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid) supplemented to media appeared to be negative upon the adventitious bud formation of P. nigra var. italica, while it promoted callus formation from all explants. Especially, NAA (${\alpha}$-naphtalene acetic acid) or NAA combination with BAP (6-benzylaminopurine) promoted root regeneration from the all explant of P. nigra var. italica in this study.

Hydrocotyle maritima Honda used as medicinal plants for a hemostatic agent was investigated for in vitro regeneration. The petiole explants of H. maritima were cultured on callus induction medium containing growth regulators ($0{\sim}5\;mg/l$, NAA and $0{\sim}5\;mg/l$ 2,4-D) either in single or in combination with $0.1{\sim}2\;mg/l$ BA for 6 weeks. Although single treatments of 2,4-D or NAA resulted in callus formation, the best results were combination of $0.5\;mg/l$, 2,4-D and $0.5\;mg/l$, BA. $5\;mg/l$, NAA and $0.5\;mg/l$, BA, respectively. The highest number of shoot (12 shoots per callus) was achieved with $3\;mg/l$, Kinetin. Also, when pieces of embryogenic callus induced on the medium supplemented with $0.5\;mg/l$, 2,4-D and $0.5\;mg/l$, BA were subcultured on hormone-free medium, somatic embryos were differentiated and developed further into welldeveloped plants.
