Abstract

It is well known that protoplast is the ideal receptor for gene enginnering research. Strains with good traits could be selected from somaclonal vatiation in protoplast culture as well. Therefore, plant regeneration of recalcitrant cereal crops through protoplast culture would be followed consistently with great interest in the world. There were only two papers concerning the regeneration of plantlets from protoplast of maize (Cai et al., 1987; Kamo et al., 1987).
