The following accessions were used: Brazilian Red Dwarf Gramame (BRDG), Malaysian Yellow Dwarf (MYD), Brazilian Tall (BRA), Polynesian Tall (PYT), and Rennell Island Tall (RIT). Embryos were inoculated in an Y3 culture medium at different mannitol concentrations (0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, and 0.4 mol L?1). Inhibition of shoot development was verified at 0.1, 0.2, and 0.3 mol L?1, for MYD and BRDG, and at 0.1 and 0.2 mol L?1, for PYT, BRA, and RIT. Mannitol use is a promising strategy for minimum growth conservation.  aGermplasm  aTissue culture  aCocos nucifera  aCultura de tecido  aGermoplasma  aRegulador osmótico1 aMOURA, C. R.
