| With the objective to promote in vitro callus induction, cotyledon and hypocotyl segments of "perennial soybean" (Glycine wightii (Wight & Arn.) Verdc.) were inoculated in basal medium MS supplemented with sucrose (1.5 e 3%) and 0.8% agar and different concentrations of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 6-furfurylaminopurine (kinetin). The explants were maintained in a dark growth room at 28ºC. The best callus induction was observed in explants (cotyledon and hypocotyl) maintained in medium containing the combination of 2,4-D (1 mg.L-1), kinetin (0.1 mg.L-1) and 3% sucrose. To promote callus subculture, the MS medium was supplemented with different combinations of 2,4-D (0.5 to 4.0 mg.L-1), with or without kinetin (0.1 mg.L-1) and sucrose... |
