The effects of high-concentration, 2-h liquid pulses of N6-benzylaminopurine (BA) and thidiazuron (TD) on adventitious bud and shoot formation were tested in cotyledons of Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii). Seedling age proved important; on average, cotyledons from the youngest seedlings formed 10-fold more buds than cotyledons from the oldest seedlings. Optimal cytokinin concentrations for the youngest cotyledons were 400 and 800 micromole BA, and 100 and 200 micromole TD. Shoots developed best from buds induced with 300, 400, and 800 micromole BA. Four gelling agents were tested; BRL agarose yielded more than three times the number of buds, and Gelrite nearly twice the number of buds, as either Sigma agar or Difco Bacto-Agar. One of the best treatments (400 micromole BA, agarose) yielded more cotyledons with buds, and more buds per cotyledon, than when cytokinins were incorporated into the growth medium.
