Abstract

The invention relates to a process for the promotion of regeneration of differentiated plants from vegetable cells maintained in tissue cultures by adding inhibitors of ethylene production or ethylene action to the hormone-containing or hormone-free culture medium used for maintaining the tissue cultures. The process is equally suitable for the promotion of the regeneration of mono- and dicotyledons. As an inhibitor preferably silver nitrate or cobalt chloride is employed.
