Abstract:
A method for regeneration of sunflower plants via shoot induction from cotyledon explants prepared from non-germinated sunflower embryos is described. Several methods for preparing explants by dissection of mature and immature fully-formed embryos are provided. Explants are prepared to insure that substantially all of the induced shoots derive from single cotyledon cells. Appropriately prepared explants are cultured on a shoot induction medium containing a combination of BA and NAA. Induced shoots are rooted and the resulting plantlets are grown into mature sunflower plants. This regeneration method is efficient, rapid and employs a convenient explant source, sunflower seed. This regeneration method is particularly useful in combination with methods for introduction of foreign DNA into sunflower cells and tissue.
