Abstract
Adventitious buds were induced on one-week-old juvenile seedlings of Hinoki cypress on Campbell and Durzan's basic medium containing 10 µM (2.25 mg/l) benzyladenine (BA) and 0.027 µM (0.005 mg/l) naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and they elongated into shoots on the same medium lacking benzyladenine. About 70% of shoots could be rooted on the same basic medium containing 14.8 µM (3 mg/l) indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), 0.54 µM (0.1 mg/l) naphthaleneacetic acid and 2.66 µM (1 mg/l) riboflavin. These plantlets were potted in perlite. They were micropropagated about 100 times per seedling within 18 months.
