Inflorescence induction and morphogenesis of regenerated flowers were investigated in vitro in Dioscorea zingiberensis C. H. Wright. Inflorescence induction was influenced by the type and concentration of phytohormones. When floral bud explants were incubated on a Murashige and Skoog medium containing a combination of 2.0 mg l⁻¹ 6-benzyladenine and 0.5 mg l⁻¹ indole-3-butyric acid, the highest frequency of inflorescence induction was observed. However, in the presence of gibberellic acid, induction efficiency was reduced although node length of inflorescence was increased. Ontogenetic studies revealed that the inflorescence primordia originated directly from axillary epidermal cells of the perianth and bract of the explants after 7 days. In vitro, male flowers developed normally and blossomed after 90-100 days. In addition, some bisexual flowers were observed. These results demonstrated that there were differences in sexual differentiation of floral buds in vitro compared with that in vivo.
