Shoot Bud Induction and Somatic Embryogenesis in Callus Cultures of Munudlea sericea (Wild.) A. Cheval.

Key Points

• Somatic embryogenesis occurs effectively in callus cultures, allowing for potential plant regeneration.
• Shoot bud induction rates reached up to 70% under optimal conditions, indicating robust embryogenic competence.
• Assessment using plant tissue culture methods reveals the relationship between environmental factors and embryogenic potential.
• Findings may enable new strategies for propagating Munudlea sericea, supporting conservation and cultivation efforts.
