Summary

Tissue cultures isolated from the root ofCrambe maritima have now undergone 17 transfers over two years on a medium containing 10% coconut milk, 2.0 mg/l IAA + 0.8 mg/l kinetin. The cultures consist predominantly of organized structures varying in complexity from nodular to root-like outgrowths and teratomatous leafy shoots. Embryoid-like structures also occur.
