Research Abstract |
Efficient method for micropropagation of Acacia mangium and its interspecific hybrids with A. auriculiformis was established through callus and multiple shoot formation. By utilizing this system, transgenic callus and shoot primordia were obtained through Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation method. Tetraploid plants were also obtained by treating axillary buds of in vitro propagated plantlets with some chromosome doubling agents.
