Cells and protoplasts isolated from three different tissues of sunflower hypocotyls and cultured either in liquid or agarose medium were compared in terms of their volume, DNA content, division potential and embryoid formation. Epidermal and external cortical cells differ from other tissue cells by their small size, their weak response to plasmolysis and their low DNA content (around 1C). They contribute only very weakly to the dividing protoplast population. In contrast, protoplasts from cortical and medullar cells both have similar division potential, reaching 50%. The nuclear DNA content of these two cell types, as well as their corresponding protoplasts, has a 2C value, taking root tip cells in G0 phase as standard. The culture conditions induce the same specific response in protoplasts isolated from both tissues: exclusively loose colony formation in liquid medium, and mainly production of embryoids in agarose medium.
