Itoh peony is one of the popular ornamental plants, which represents an intermediate form between herbs and trees. The present study was aimed at developing a culture growing system for mass multiplication of Itoh peony cv. 'Julia Rose'. Axillary buds were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium with 6-benzylaminopurine and indole-3-butyric acid for indirect somatic embryogenesis. Nodular callus was derived from the base of the axillary buds. Histological analysis was performed to elucidate the origin and development of somatic embryos.

Abstract


Itoh peony is one of the popular ornamental plants, which represents an intermediate form between herbs and trees. The present study was aimed at developing a culture growing system for mass multiplication of Itoh peony cv. 'Julia Rose'. Axillary buds were cultured on Murashige and Skoog medium with 6-benzylaminopurine and indole-3-butyric acid for indirect somatic embryogenesis. Nodular callus was derived from the base of the axillary buds. Histological analysis was performed to elucidate the origin and development of somatic embryos.
