Date issued/created: Subject and Keywords: Abstract:In Arabidopsis biotechnology plants are regenerated in vitro via shoot organogenesis induced in callus derived from different somatic tissues. An alternative way of in vitro plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis has not beenapplied in Arabidopsis so far. Recently, it was found that development ofArabidopsis somatic embryos can be induced in the culture of immature zygotic embryos and that the callus phase is not nocessary for the initiation of embryogenesis. The aim of the presented research was to determinate the in vitro cultureconditions enabling high efficiency of somatic embryo induction and theirconversion into plants. The influence of induction medium composition including liquid or agar medium, type and concentration of auxin, carbohydrates andammonium sources as well as duration of auxin treatment of explants on DSEefficiency were evaluated. Advantages of described regeneration system via DSEare as follows: short time needed to induce somatic embryos (10-15 days), highefficiency ofthe process (more than 80% explants responded), numerous embryos produced per explant (on average 17) and high percentage of embryo conversion into fertile plants (70-80%).
