Abstract

Embryogenic callus initiated from basal segments of micropropagated shoots of Oryza rufipogon were used to initiate cell suspension cultures. After approximately 3 months these cultures were capable of yielding large numbers of protoplasts which underwent sustained division in agarose-solidified medium at a frequency comparable to that observed with Japonica rice protoplasts in previous studies. O. rufipogon plants were reproducibly regenerated from the protoplast-derived callus and are currently being grown to maturity. This is the first report of plant regeneration from protoplasts of a wild species of Oryza.
