Simple dehydration treatment promotes plantlet regeneration of rice (Oryza sativa L.) callus

Plant Cell Reports Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

To increase plantlet regeneration frequency, rice callus was dehydrated in a Petri dish with a single layer of filter paper prior to transfer to the regeneration medium. With a 24 h dehydration treatment, the regeneration frequency was increased to 47 %, while the regeneration frequency of the untreated control was less than 5 %. This relatively simple method provides an alternative method for improving the regeneration frequency of rice callus.
