Test tube seedlings of ramie were cultured on MS media containing BA,2.5mg/l,NAA,0.1mg/l,and other hormones to induce bud formation on leaf surface.It wasfound that medium containing BA had better effect for this purpose than those con-taining Zeetin or Kinetin.It was also observed that cells near leaf veins,particularlyparenchyma cells of the vascular bundles of the mid-ribs,tended to divide,differentiateand dedifferentiate more readily than cells elsewhere.Perhaps this might be somewhatrelated to bud formation on t...
