The experiment was conducted to investigate optimal condition for callus induction and plant regeneration for transformation system of gerbera. Callus induction was more effective in 'white day' then other two cultivar 'Songsongee' and 'Love Song' The optimized plant growth regulators concentration on callus induction, was MS basal medium with NAA 0.1 mg/L＋ TDZ 0.5 mg/L. The optimized plant growth regulators concentration on plant regeneration, which was used MS basal medium was IAA 1.0 mg/L ＋ BA 1.0 mg/L ＋ Zeatin 0.1 mg/L. The optimized petiole age for more effective plant regeneration was 32 days petiole after in vitro subculture and MS basal medium strength was 1/2 MS strength.

Shoot induction system was developed in the recalcitrant plant species, Brassica rapa ssp. rapifera by using optimum selection of profit organ, phytohormone combination, seedling age and kind of culture container. Out of in vitro cultured leaf segment, petiole, hypocotyl, and cotyledon with petiole, only cotyledon with petiole derived from 4 day-old seedlings induced multiple shoot. The optimum combination of auxin and cytokinin for the multiple shoot induction was MS medium containing 5mg/L BA and 0.5mg/L NAA. The major factors for multiple shoot propagation were part of plant organ, age of seedling, and ratio of auxin and cytokinin. In addition, shoot regeneration was promoted in the 100ml Erlenmeyer flask compared with the $90mm{\times}20mm$ Petri-dish. The induced shoots formed roots easy on MS medium containing 0.1mg/L IBA and the whole plants were successfully cultivated in soil.

Lower and upper petiole segments of strawberry plants (Fragaria${\times}$ananassa) were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing 2mg/liter Benzylamino purine (BA), 0.02mg/liter 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), or their coinbination. Of the lower petiole segments, 55% or more were differentiated on the media containing $2mg/{\ell}\;BA$ or $2mg/{\ell}\;BA+0.02mg/{\ell}\;2,4-D$. There was no significant difference in results be tween these treatments. BA did not influence root formation. No shoots we re initiated from the upper petiole segments. Root formation was stimulated by the $0.02mg/{\ell}\;2,4-D$ medium, whereas it inhibited shoot formation. Upper petiole segments produced more roots than did lower petiole segments.

This study was conducted to investigate an optimal condition for shoot proliferation and regenerate shoots from in vitro leaflet and embryogenic calli from in vitro roots in rose. The effect of BAP on shoot proliferation was somewhat different depending upon genotypes or gelling agents. Leaflets with petiole cut from donor shoots which had been cultured in MS medium supplemented with 0.1 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ NAA for six weeks was effective for regeneration of adventitious buds(ABs) as well as shoot elongation of Rosa hybrida cv. Sweet Pink. Culturing seven leaflet explants per petri plate($100mm{\times}15mm$) was effective for regeneration of ABs. Embryogenesis was shown in the calli induced from roots of Rosa hybrida cv. Sweet Pink cultured in the SH medium supplemented with 11 $mg{\cdot}L^{-1}$ 2, 4-D for four weeks. Color of calli induced from roots was yellow although their color was a little different as type of basal medium.

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.

In vitro plant regeneration of inbred breeding line of hot pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) was established using leaf and petiole segments as explants. About 28 days old plants were excised and cultured on MS medium supplemented with TDZ and NAA or in combination with Zeatin. In all of the media compositions tested, combination of TDZ 0.5 mg/L, Zeatin 0.5 mg/L, and NAA 0.1 mg/L was found to be the best medium for shoot bud initiation. Young petiole was the most appropriate explant type for the plant regeneration as well as genetic transformation in hot pepper. In this study, HpMADS1 gene isolated from hot pepper was introduced using Agrobacterium-mediated transformation system. Based on the analysis of Southern blot and RT-PCR, HpMADS1 gene was integrated in the hot pepper genome. It has been known that floral organ development is controlled by a group of regulatory factors containing the MADS domain. Morphological characteristics in these transgenic plants, especially flowering habit, however, were not significantly altered, indicating this MADS gene, HpMADS1 may be non-functional in this case.

Adventitious buds were obtained from isolated cotyledons cultured on MS medium with various concentrations of 6-benzylamino purine (BA) and thidiazuron (TDZ). The highest numbers of adventitious buds were obtained on MS medium supplemented with 0.2 mg/L BA. Experimental culturing with half the petiole portion and half with the terminal segments were grown on MS medium contained with 0.2 mg/L BA. Frequency of the adventitious bud induction was variable accordingly to the type of cultured explants. Explants with the half petiole showed the highest adventitious bud induction rate (80%) compared to explants of half with terminal segment (20%). An elongated shoot from the buds and growth of advent roots were both possible on the 1/2 MS medium without a plant growth regulator. These results offer an effective way in which clonal propagation can be accomplished.

In order to investigate the micropropagation of Pelargonium, 2 cultivars of P. peltatum 'Pouletta' and P. zonale 'Pinto Red' were cultured in vitro on the MS basal medium supplemented with various concentrations of growth regulators. It attempted to study the induction of callus and the differentiation of organs from leaf disc, petiole segments, stem segments. hypocotyle segments and flower stalk segments. The results are summarized as follows; A. As for the initiation of callus, stem explant was proved to be the most suitable one among various explants of P. zonale 'Pinto Red'. The medium was supplemented with 1.0mg/1 BAP and 1.0mg/1 NAA. As NAA concentration increased, callus formation was enhanced, but higher concentration of NAA inhibited callus fromation. Leaf and hypocotyle explants showed less callus formation than stem and petiole explants. B. In P. zonale 'Pinto Red' petiole culture, the condition of cullus culture such as hormone concentration resulted in affecting shoots differentiation. The best result of shoots formation from the callus reculture were obtained from the combination of 0.5-1.0mg/1 BAP and 0.1-1.0mg/1 NAA when the callus was cultured in 1.0mg/1 BAP and 0.05mg/1 NAA. When the callus was cultured in medium without BAP, the shoot was not differentiated in subculture regardless to BAP and NAA concentration. and only callus was formed. C. Poly-phenol substance was observed in MS medium supplemented without PVP, in which callus was not formed from the leaf of P. peltatum 'Rouletta'. Polyphenol substance was not observed in MS medium supplemented with PVP, in which callus formation was increased. D. The callus formation of P. peltatum 'Rouletta' showed the stem explant being best result. The best result particularly in the stem explant among others. The optimal hormonal concentration was 0.1mg/1 NAA and 5.0mg/1 BAP. The shoot formation was observed at 0.05mg/1 NAA and 1.0mg/1 BAP, 0.1mg/1 NAA and 5.0mg/1 BAP. The shoot was malformed and the tissue recultured turned necrotic.

This study was carried out to establish The regeneration of healthy seedlings from the nodal segment culture of Chinese yam (Dioscorea opposita cv. Danma), cultivated in Korea. Different explants such as leaves, petioles, roots and nodal pieces, excised from the in vitro grown seedlings of Chinese yam, were cultured on MS medium supplemented with various combinations of growth regulators. All the growth regulators used induced plantlet regeneration from the nodal segments at a high frequency, while there was no induction of shoot or callus from leaf, petiole or root tissues. The medium supplemented with 0.01mg/L NAA, 0.5mg/L BA, 0.5-1.0mg/L kinetin and without plant growth regulator was effective for shoot development of buds from the nodal segment culture. The concentration of BA and NAA was an important factor in the bud induction of buds from the nodal segments of Chinese yam. Nodal segments cultured on the medium containing 1.0mg/L NAA and 0.5-1.0mg/L BA gave the best response to bud formation. The addition of GA$_3$ to the culture medium suppressed shoot induction and growth, while it increased microtuber formation. The shoot growth and microtuber formation were also affected by medium strength and solidity. The MS basal medium containing 1 g/L gelrite was suitable for microtuber formation from the nodal segment of Chinese yam.

This experiment was canted out to obtain embryogenic callus and to understand developmental mechanism of somatic embryogenesis in Oenanthe javanica ($B_{L.}$) DC. experiments included the examination of explant source and media for embryogenic callus production and the observation of developmental pattern of embryogenic cells and non-embryogenic cells. Embryogenic calli were formed on zygotic pro-embryos together with their endosperms when they were cultured on Ms media containing 1.0mg/L 2,4-D. Embryogenic calli were also formed on the intact surface in vitro grown stem or petiole segmentsafrer 6-8 weeks of culture, whereas non-embryogenic calli were formed on cut surfaces of the stem and petiole after 2 weeks of culture. Non-embryogenic calli were rhizogenic in suspension and solid media culture.
