Callus Induction and Plantlet Regeneration from The Immature Embryo of Actinidia arguta var. purpurea

The immature embryo of Actinidia argutaTB var. purpurea were cultured on three different media to induce callus. The results show the callus was obtained from basic MS media with the combination of 0.2 mg/L ZT and 0.5 mg/L GA₃. High callus induction frequency was obtained from MS media supplemented with 7% surgar, 600 mg/L CH and 400 mg/L Gln. The highest rate of regeneration was found under the MS media supplemented with 0.5 mg/L 6-BA, 0.05 mg/L NAA and 0.5 mg/L GA₃.
