On the MS medium containing only 2,4-D, callus induction was inhibited. Moreover, these calli were friable and turned brown after two weeks of culture. the three-week old calli were then transferred to the MS medium containing NAA 0.5 mg/l and kinetin 1 mg/l. The somatic embryos with globular shape appeared after 10 days of culture, while the heart shape, torpedo_shape and cotyledonary_shape embryos appeared successively after 15 days of culture. The abnormal embryos occupied at a rate of 34.3% and rarely germinated to plantlets. On the MS medium without plant growth regulators or only with NAA, somatic embryos could not be induced. On MS medium supplemented with ethephon 3 mg/l somatic embryogenesis from calli was inhibited. Plantlets derived from the eggplant somatic embryos had a survival rate up to 95% when transferred to the pots.

Vegetative to reproductive transition depends on different factors. This study was conducted to examine factors affecting the growth and flowering of Browallia americana L. in vitro such as the age of the sample, mineral content, plant growth regulators, concentration and type of sugar, ventilation culture. The results showed that 40-day-old shoots were a suitable source of in vitro flowering (90.85% after 45 days of culture). Mineralcontent had a great influence on the ability to differentiate flower buds of plants, the highest in Murashige and Skoog medium (87.22% after 45 days of culture). Meanwhile, most of the plant growth regulators which were surveyed in this study inhibited the flowering. In particular, culture medium with glucose showed higher flowering efficiency than saccharose, the highest flowering rate was at 50 mg/L glucoses (90.52%, with 3.50 flower buds/explant after 30 days of culture). In addition, ventilation culture, which used plastic wrapedwith milipore filter had the highest rate of flower bud formation (average 3.58 flower buds/plant). This result is an important foundation for studying the flowering of in vitro plant culture, which will be one of the great paradigm plants for teaching and basic research.
