A high-performance protocol for callus induction was devised using germinating mature embryos of two local wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) landraces as explant. The results showed that callus development from germinating embryos was rapid starting one day after culture with an induction rate 20 to 25% higher than those of soaked embryos. In addition, the mean rate of growth of callus developed from germinating embryos was 60 to 70% higher than those cultured from soaked embryos. This study also demonstrated a higher frequency of green spots formation(48 to 56%)on callus derived from germinating embryos compared to their soaked counterpart (24 to 28%), suggesting a better differentiation potential of callus cultures derived from germinating embryo. These findings indicate that germinating mature embryo is more suitable explant for wheat callus induction and regeneration than the soaked mature embryo commonly employed for wheat callus culture.

An in vitro experiment with two cultivars, Mahon Demias and Hidhab of bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) exhibited appreciable callus induction but differed significantly in the capacity of calli proliferation and regeneration under salinity stress; even though Mahon Demias appeared relatively more tolerant than Hidhab. The results indicated the need to optimize a robust protocol for callus induction, maintenance and regeneration before selection process for tolerance to salinity is embarked upon.Key words: Bread wheat, Salinity stress, Callus proliferation, Mature embryoDOI = 10.3329/ptcb.v17i1.1117Plant Tissue Cult. & Biotech. 17(1): 19-27, 2007 (June)
