Abstract
For the application of genetic manipulation techniques it is a prerequisite to have a good protoplast system followed by regeneration into plants. Sugarbeet is recalcitrant in some of these aspects, e.g. protoplast culture leading to microcolony formation, while some results have been obtained starting from suspension cells, success has been poor with mesophyll protoplasts (1). Our aim is to develop procedures for protoplast culture in sugarbeet applicable to a variety of genotypes.
