“…The response of cultured protoplasts to the basic components (macronutrients, micronutrients and vitamins) of the following culture media was examined: Kao [10], K3 [18], A [11], B5 [7], S1 [22], NN [19] and BSK [4]. The basic components were supplemented with 0.38M glucose, NAA (1.0 mg/L), 2,4-D (0.2 mg/L), and BAP (0.5 mg/L), except for medium BSK, whose glucose concentration was reduced to 0.23 M, so that the osmolarity would fall within the range of the other media.…”
