Plants were regenerated from hypocotyl and anther explants of berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium containing various combinations of plant growth regulators. The most efficient production of plants from hypocotyl explants involved: callus induction on MS medium with 1.0 mg/liter of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 1.5 mg/liter 6-furfurylaminopurine (KIN); callus increase on MS medium with 2.0 mg/liter of NAA and 0.1 mg/liter of N/sup 6/-(..delta../sup 2/-isopentenyl) adenine (2iP); induction of shoots on MS medium with 0.5 mg/liter each of NAA and KIN followed by induction of roots on MS medium with 1.0 mg/liter of indoleacetic acid (IAA) and 0.1 mg/liter of 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP). Suspension cultures in liquid MS medium containing 2.0 mg/liter of NAA and 0.2 mg/liter of 2iP provided filterable cell preparations with 45% viable cells, 4% of which gave rise to colonies within 3 weeks after transfer to agar plates. Shoot development was observed when callus from the colonies was cultured on MS medium with 0.5 mg/liter of NAA and KIN. Preliminary results indicate that cells of root tips from hypocotyl- and anther-derived callus have the expected diploid and haploid number of chromosomes (2n = 16 and n = 8, respectively).
