Somatic embryogenesis in nearly direct manner was observed only at a combination of low cell densities (~4 x 10sobre4/ml) and low mannitol concentrations (~ 0.4 M). Two altenatives to achieve high frequency embryogenesis (~ 70%) were to either dilute the cells to lower densities, or to do serial transfers of cells to fresh medium. Orange protoplasts (cells) showed embryogenic potential, and repression of embryo-genesis occurred when propoplasts were cultured at a high density and/or under high osmotic pressure. asomatic embryogenesis aCitrus sinensis Osb aInhibitor (s) aNucellar callus aplant regeneration aProtoplast1 aIKEDA, I.1 aUCHIMIYA, H. tPlant Cell Tissue Organ Culture.gv.4, p.249-259, 1985.
