Efficient protoplast isolation from ovule-derived embryogenic callus in Citrus volkameriana

The present study reports on the isolation of viable protoplast from ovule-derived embryogenic calli of Volkameriana (Citrus volkameriana L.), which is a rootstock in high demand for lemon production.Ovules of C. volkameriana isolated at 3 different immature fruit stages, comprising4, 8, and 12 weeks after anthesis (WAA), were cultured on5 different media in order to produce embryogenic callus lines as a source material for protoplast isolation. EME medium (MT basal medium + 0.5 gL(-1) malt extract), with the addition of phytohormones [kinetin (KIN), 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP)] at different concentrations, were tested for callogenesis. According to 2-way ANOVA, significant effects were determined as a result of the immature fruit stage and type of culture media (P
