Plants of Iberis amara (Brassicaceae) have been regenerated from in vitro cultured leaf and stem explants. Roots have been induced at high frequency on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, supplement with indole acetic acid (IAA) and rarely on MS plus kinetin. The frequency of shoot induction has been increased by adding kinetin to the basal medium. Induced shoots, on transfer to media containing IAA, developed into plants. 2,4-Dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid enhanced callusing but inhibited organogenesis

The anthers of Lobularia maritima Desv. (Brassicaceae) have developed pollen divisions and callusing, followed by plantlet regeneration, under in vitro conditions. Both, pollen divisions and callusing have been induced on benzylamino (BM) plus benzylaminopurine (BAP) 6 x 10('-6)M plus 2,4 dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) (1 ppm), and BM plus kinetin 6 x 10('-6)M plus 2,4-D (2 ppm) media. However, calli and their further regeneration into plantlets could be sustained only on BM plus BAP 6 x 10('-6)M. Nutrient media containing 2,4-D inhibited shoot regeneration. Callus alone developed on several other media also.
