Coconut (Cocos nucífera L.) production has been declining in México and other countries due to deadly diseases; therefore, massive production of palms resistant to diseases is needed for replanting. Production of somatic embryos and micropropagation could be a very useful technique to produce free disease coconut population. Explants (embryogenic-structures) of Pacific Tall 2 ecotype were cultured in an induction medium defined as I (semisolid Y3 medium containing 0.65 mM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid) and treated with the cytokinin benzyladenine (BA) at 0, 25, 100 or 200 ,µM to evaluate its effect on embryogenic callus formation. The BA treatments did not affect the percentage of embryogenic callus formation. In order to evaluate the effect of the BA...
