The apparent loss of tissue culture competence during leaf differentiation in yams (Dioscorea bulbifera L.)

1993

Explants taken from the leaves of yams (Dioscorea bulbifera L.) at different stages of development were cultured in vitro on a checkerboard using various combinations and/or concentrations of auxin (2,4-d) and cytokinin (6-BAP). An addition of cytokinin to the culture media was not essential for callus induction from explants derived from young leaves in the very early stages of expansion. When the leaves expanded further they required cytokinin and the requirement increased considerably during expansion. Explants taken from fully expanded leaves were no longer able to proliferate, even when extremely high concentrations of cytokinins were applied. Callus grown from highly immature leaves w…
