Abstract

The notion of culturing plant cells in vitro goes back to the beginning of this century. However, successful experiments in the culturing of unorganized plant cells for prolonged periods were first reported in 1939 independently by GAUTHERET (40) and WHITE (112), who in essence established the technique still in use today.
