Response of Embryogenic Callus of Theobroma cacao 1. to Gibberellic Acid and Inhibitors of Gibberellic Acid Synthesis

Response of Embryogenic Callus of Theobroma cacao 1. to Gibberellic Acid and Inhibitors of Gibberellic Acid Synthesis - Z. Pflanzenphysiol., 113, p.359-366, 1984 .

Gibberellic acid at 0.05 to 10 mg .1-1 stimulated asexual embryogenesis from embryogeniccompetent callus of clone BC 5 but not BC 36 of Theobroma cacao. AMO 1618 stimulated embryogenesis at 0.05 to 0.1 mg .1-1 but depressed embryogenesis above 0.1 mg .1-1 for clone BC 5. A similar but smaller effect was observed for BC 36. Daminozide and CCC depressed embryogenesis with both clones.
