Tissue Culture and Agrobacterium-Mediated Transformation on Rosa Hybrida L. 'Christian Dior'

Callus induction from leaf explants of Rosa hybrida L. 'Christian Dior' was established. Two types of auxins (2.4-D and NAA) at three concentrations (4.5, 9.0 and 13.5 µM) and two types of cytokinins (kinetin and BA) at three concentrations (2.3, 4.7 and 9.3 µM) were used in a 3 X 4 expe...
