Somatic embryogenesis was induced in callus previously initiated from immature embryos of barley. These cultures ranged in age from 6 weeks to 30 months. Embryoids were readily initiated from homogenized suspension-grown aggregates when plated on modified B5 media with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid. Low concentrations (0.1 and 0.05 mg∙L−1) of abscisic acid promoted further maturation of embryoids, while gibberellic acid (1 mg∙L−1) and kinetin (0.1 mg∙L−1) were used in the media to encourage embryoid germination. The development of somatic embryoids from initiation through maturation and germination is described.

2,4 Dichlorophenoxyacetic Acid

A winter gibberellic acid (GA3) spray consistently reduced flower formation, but had a variable effect on the amount of first-grade fruit in the early harvest of `Clausellina' satsuma (Citrus unshiu Marc.), and in the long term these applications had no significant effect on the value of the crop. Auxin applications increased the amount of first grade-early harvested fruit, and increased crop value as compared to hand-thinned trees. No significant differences in yield or fruit grade could be found among the different auxin applications tried, namely an application of 20 mg·L-1 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) at flowering, or applications of 25 mg·L-1 naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), or 50 mg·L-1 2,4-dicholorophenoxypropionic acid (2,4-DP) at the end of fruitlet abscission. Apart from their effect on size, the auxin applications had only a marginal effect on fruit quality.

SummaryWhen pre-harvest foliar applications of growth regulators were made to vines of Dioscorea esculenta cv. Chinese Yam and D. alata cv. White Lisbon there were no obvious effects on tubers of D. alata, but dramatic effects on tuber development, storage and germination were obtained with D. esculenta tubers. Gibberellic acid caused marked extensions in tuber dormancy, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid resulted in marked callus development, delayed germination and abnormal shoot and root development and indole acetic acid resulted in fingering of the tubers. It was concluded that there was potential for commercial exploitation of pre-harvest gibberellic acid treatments in extension of dormancy in Chinese Yam tubers and that the lack of response of D. alata tubers to foliar application of growth regulators warranted further investigation.

SummaryPreharvest sprays with 6-hydroxy-3-(2H)-pyridazinone (MH), or immersion in solutions of MH, 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D), 2-chloroethylphosphonic acid (ethephon), coumarin or (2-chloroethyl) trimethylammonium chloride (CCC) inhibited both sprouting and rooting of treated carrots during storage at 0 °C whencompared with water-dipped or untreated carrots, while N-6-benzyl-adenine (BA) dips stimulated extensive rooting and sprouting. In contrast, immersion in gibberellic acid (GA3) solutions had very little effect.Storage atmospheres containing 1, 2.5, 5 or 10% oxygen inhibited both sprouting and rooting but increased mould infection. Atmospheres containing 21% (air) or 40% oxygen reduced mould infection, but increased sprouting and rooting of stored carrots. Washing carrots in water before storage did not significantly affect mould infection, while washing in 0.5% clorox increased it. However, washing in water followed by immersion in MH inhibited both sprouting and rooting and also reduced mould infection. ‘Jumbo’ and large-size carrots stored better than medium and small carrots.

The effect of maleic hydrazide and several other chemicals on the synthesis of lignin was investigated in oat coleoptile, pea hypocotyl, and tobacco. When measured by ultraviolet light absorption, maleic hydrazide depressed While 1,4-naphthoquinone increased the lignin content in the conducting tissues of oat coleoptile. The lignin content of oat coleoptiles treated with maleic hydrazide in presence of 1,4-naphthoquinone and tyrosine was reduced. Additions of ferulic acid generally overcame the effects of maleic hydrazide; p-benzoquinone was ineffective. Gibberellic acid and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid generally promoted the synthesis of lignin. Joint use of these chemicals and maleic hydrazide produced intermediate levels of lignin. The hygroscopicity and filling value of flue-cured tobacco was related to the lignin content of the leaf.
