An efficient clonal propagation procedure for six rice varieties cultivated in Argentina was developed by using shoot tip cultures, and the genetic stability of the micropropagated plants was verified by isozyme analysis. One week old seedlings obtained on MS medium were sectioned and subcultured on MS medium (0.75% agar) supplemented with different combination and concentrations of cytokinins (BAP and KIN) and auxins (2,4-D and NAA). After four weeks of culture, multiple shoots were obtained. The best response was observed on MS supplemented with BAP 5 mg l(-1). Shoot clumps were multiplied in MS liquid medium containing BAP 5 mg l(-1). Profuse rooting was obtained after transfer to MS medium lacking growth regulators and with sucrose 8% (w/v). Complete plants were successfully transferred to soil and grown to maturity. ADH and EST patterns of micropropagated rice plants showed polymorphisms compared with plants of the original varieties. However, the zymograms of the seed derived progeny of the micropropagated plants were similar to that of the original varieties. These results indicate the maintenance of the genetic stability in the sexual progeny of micropropagated plants.

Large numbers of highly viable mesophyll protoplasts were isolated from shoot cultures of the scion cv 'Passe Crassane' and the rootstock genotype 'Old Home' of common pear (Pyrus communis L.). Protoplasts were cultured for both genotypes either as liquid layers or as liquid-over-agar cultures, in ammonium-free MS medium with 0.5 M mannitol, 50 mg/l casein enzymatic hydrolysate (CEH), 2.0 mg/l NAA and 1.0 mg/l BAP, plus either 0.5 mg/l IAA (for 'Old Home') or 2.0 mg/l IAA (for 'Passe Crassane'). Protoplast microcalli, obtained by day 60 ('Passe Crassane') or day 80 ('Old Home'), were transferred for further growth to ammonium-free MS medium with 2.0 mg/l NAA and 1.0 mg/l BAP. Shoot bud regeneration from the protoplastderived callus was first attempted between 100 ('Passe Crassane') and 120 ('Old Home') days after protoplast isolation. For 'Passe Crassane', shoot buds were regenerated (day 130) on a half-strength MS medium with 0.1 mg/l IBA, 0.5 mg/l BAP, 50 mg/l CEH and 20 mg/l Ca-panthotenate. For 'Old Home', shoot but regeneration only occurred 30 days later and on the same medium as above, which was additionally supplemented with double the concentration of the group B vitamins found in the original MS formulation and 0.05 mg/l GA3. Following micropropagation and in vitro rooting of shoots, the plants were transferred to soil following standard procedures. Trueness-to-type of the regenerated plants was assessed by analysing their leaf isozyme banding profiles (for EST, AP, PRX, SOD, ENP, LAP, PGI, AAT, ADH, MDH and PGM) and comparing them to those corresponding to the original shoots that provided the protoplasts. No differences between the mother shoots and the protoclones were observed for any one of the 11 isozyme systems studied.
