To enhance the shoot induction efficiency from nodal stem of yooza, the culture conditions such as basal medium, carbohydrate source, solidifying agent and the optimum concentration of plant growth regulators for shoot induction were investigated. The nodal explants were cultured better on MS medium than on MT, SH, B5 or W media in considering of shoot induction rate and mean shoot length. Solidifying agent in medium was better with 0.8% agar than with 0.3% agar, 1.2% agarose or 0.2% gelrite. Carbohydrate source in shoot induction medium was efficient with 30 g/L sucrose. The optimum concentrations of plant growth regulators were determined that 0.1 mg/L NAA as auxin was effective on the shoot induction, and 1.0 mg/L BAP as cytokinin induced multiple shoots efficiently. Shoot induction was the most effective on MS medium supplemented with 4 mg/L $GA_3$ in yooza.

This study was carried out to develop new varieties which are dwarf and tolerant to winter cold in the Aurantioideae by intergeneric crossing. to do that, the reciprocal crosses of Hwanggeumyooza and trifoliate orange, yooza and trifoliate orange were done and in vitro immature ovule culture of their hybrid was carried out .The callus formation from immature ovule was good in order of Hwanggeumyooza, Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ tifoliate orange, yooza, and trifoliate orange and best at 1 to 3 mg/L NAA+0.5mg/L zeatin on MT medium. In vitro germination percentage of 20week old hybrid of Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ tifoliate orange and trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza were 41.3% and 37.7, respectively. The phenotype of hybrid (95%) of Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ trifoliate orange and that (100%) of trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza were similar to that of trifoliate orange. After Hwanggeumyooza was pollinated by pollens of trifoliate orange, the pollen tubes grew on stigma after 3h of pollination and entered into micropyle after about 24~28 h. One gamete in pollen was fused with polar nuclei after 2 days and other one fused with egg nucleus at 3days after pollination. The fruit set percentage by intergeneric crossing was 14.0% in Hwanggeumyooza $\times$ trtfoliate orange and 17.5% in trifoliate orange $\times$ Hwanggeumyooza. The fruit set percentages of Hwanggeumyooza. and trifoliate orange were 34.2% and 39.5% by artificial self-fertilization, 34.2% and 39.5% by artificial cross fertilization, 3.1% and 1.4% by parthenocarpy and 13.0% and 3.0% by natural fertilization, respectively. The somatic and gametic chromosome numbers of Hwanggeumyooza, yooza, and trifoliate orange were 2n=18 and n=9.
