Thunb. tissue cultures is
optimized when flower fragments containing meristem
tissue and with morphogenetic capacity are used. Direct
regeneration of inflorescence axis (rachis) and perianth
tube explants in tissue culture led to the formation of
shoots typical of this species. Examination of the anatomical
structures of the ovary, pistil and filament did not show any
zones of meristematic activity, as examined over a 30-d
cultivation period using these organs. These results could
explain the lack of regenerative capacity of these explants.
