Abstract
Actinidia deliciosa (A. chinensis) is a fruiting species of great economic interest. Experiments on genetic manipulation for its improvement include, as for other crops, the obtention and culture of protoplasts. Protoplast isolation from A. chinensis leaves and calli, was reported (1,4). In this study we describe the suitable conditions for the isolation and culture of protoplasts from calli and suspension cultured cells of kiwi.
