Explants were obtained from leaves of three strains of tomato and grown on a modified Murashige and Skoog's medium with various combinations of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and kinetin. Callus proliferation began by 8–10 days. Root initiation was very common, particularly at 2 mg/liter IAA and 2 mg/liter kinetin. Shoot formation occurred within 30 days but only at a specific combination of concentrations of the two growth hormones (4 mg/liter IAA + 4 mg/liter kinetin). Most shoots became plantlets by 10 days after transfer to basal Murashige and Skoog's medium. Shoot-forming potential was neither correlated with callus-forming potential nor with vigor of strain.

The proliferation of parenchymatous foliar tissue of Quercus ilex was obtained from current year leaves taken from old trees and cultivated in vitro on modified Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with benzylaminopurine (4 mg ∙ L−1) and naphthyl acetic acid (0.5 mg ∙ L−1). Only the fragments cultured in October reacted. The neoformations only appeared on calluses that had not been subcultured for 7 months. Primary nodules arising on these calluses were removed and subcultured on the same medium either in the dark or in the light. In the dark only, they produced secondary nodules, which were the source of somatic embryos both in light and dark. Presently, they seem to regulate their structure in the dark but they do not develop in a way that leads to germination.

An in vitro system was used for the production of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) fruit in culture starting from immature flowers. This system produced small parthenocarpic (seedless) fruit in response to 10-4m indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) supplied in the medium. Other auxins, auxin conjugates and antiauxins tested were not effective or produced markedly fewer fruit. Additional IAA supplied to the fruit culture media before breaker stage resulted in an increase in the time period between breaker and red-ripe stages from 7 days without additional IAA to 12 days when 10-5m IAA was added. These results suggest that significant changes in the ripening period could be obtained by alteration of auxin relationships in tomato fruit.

The regeneration capacity of six types of explants (segments from hypocotyl, cotyledons, epicotyl, leaf, internodes and petiole) was compared in 13 cultivars of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill). Explants were cultured on a regeneration medium containing 1 mg/l zeatin and 0.1 mg/l indole-3-acetic acid. The number of shoot primordia and shoots with 1 or more fully developed leaves was evaluated after 6 weeks. The regeneration capacity was significantly influenced by cultivars and explant types. The total number of shoot primordia produced in all types of explants was highest in the cultivars Hana and Premium and lowest in UC 82 and Money Marker. Cv. Hana also produced the highest number of shoots. The most responsive explants in most cultivars were hypocotyls and epicotyls with up to 100% regeneration and mean production of 6.3 and 6.5 shoot primordia per explant, respectively.

Cultured leaf explants obtained from 36 accessions of the wild tomato species, Lycopersicon hirsutum Humb. and Bonpl., were evaluated for morphogenic capacity in response to three cytokinins (zeatin, BA, and kinetin) in combination with IAA. Media containing 0.1 μm IAA plus 4.6 or 9.2 μm zeatin were optimal for shoot induction. Cotyledon explants were superior to true leaf explants for obtaining shoot formation. Morphogenic responses of L. hirsutum f. typicum and L. hirsutum f. glabratum were clearly accession-dependent and ranged from exceptional with numerous shoots produced to recalcitrant with no shoots produced. The high morphogenetic capacity of leaf explants from L. hirsutum f. typicum accession 128644 was also evident in protoplast-derived calli that readily regenerated shoots. Chemical names used (E)-2-methyl-4-(1H-purin-6-ylamino)-2-buten-1-ol (zeatin), N-(phenylmethyl) -1H-purin-6-amine (BA), N- (2-furanylmethyl) -1H- purin-6-amine (kinetin), 1H- indole-3-acetic acid (IAA).
