YAYA, Mary Luz; RODRIGUEZ, Olga Lucía; USAQUEN, William  and  CHAPARRO, Alejandro. Inducing indirect organogenesis in Abarco (Cariniana pyriformis Miers.). Agron. colomb. [online]. 2005, vol.23, n.1, pp.50-54. ISSN 0120-9965.

Morphogenesis was induced in Cariniana pyriformis hypocotyl explants via indirect organogenesis. Explants were taken from two-week-old in vitro plants. The source material was obtained from germinating embryos in Woody Plant Medium (50%) without hormones. Callus formation was stimulated by IAA (indolacetic acid) and BAP (6-benzyl amino purine). The highest percentage (75%) of callus development (after four weeks) resulted from a combination of 1.21 µM IAA and 7.6 µM BAP

Keywords : Lecythidaceae; organogenic callus; adventitious bud.
