Abstract
Mesophyll protoplasts have been isolated from soil grown plants of Solanum melongena var depressum Bailey and protoplast-derived colonies regenerated in liquid DPD culture medium. Protoplast-derived colonies proliferated on agar-solidified MS culture medium and regenerated shoots which grew to fertile plants in potting compost.
