Abstract
Tazetta narcissus ‘Geranium’ and large-cupped ‘Fortune’ were propagated from tissue cultures. Cultures of young flower stalks of ‘Geranium’ produced many adventitious buds on a culture medium supplemented with 5mg/liter 6-benzylamino purine (BA) plus 1mg/liter naphtaleneacetic acid. (NAA). Ovaries, leaves, and disks also produced adventitious buds although the number of buds was smaller. When the elongating shoots were transferred to a culture medium supplemented with 0.1mg/liter NAA alone, they formed bulbs with roots. These plantlets were successfully established in vermiculite in pots 4 months after explanting.Keywords
