The production of viable plantlets via somatic embryogenesis in Panax ginseng requires different culture media corresponding to successive developmental stages. The effects of several auxins and polyamines have been tested at various steps. Multiplication of the embryogenic root-derived callus has been optimized on half-strength MS medium supplemented with 3-(benzo[b]selenyl)acetic acid (BSAA, a synthetic auxin) and kinetin; exogenously applied polyamines were deleterious at this stage, causing browning of the callus, diminished capacity of embryo initiation, and an increased tendency to hyperhydricity. BSAA again appeared to be the most favourable auxin at the initiation stage, but here its action was reinforced by the presence of polyamines, spermidine being the most efficient. Among the auxin needed at the next step, i.e., for the regeneration of embryos, the two seleniated auxins BSAA and seleniated 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D-Se) were the more efficient. For the harmonious development of plantlets, i.e., the simultaneous outgrowth of shoots and roots, the polyamines.
