Abstract
Callus induction and morphogenic response of several fennel population s were determined by genotype and hormonal treatment. 100% callus form ation occurred only in the Francia Pernod population under the action of 2, 4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid and kinetin. Only this last hormonal treatment induced shoot regeneration . Plant regeneration was observed especially in Francia Pernod populat ion. Ths calluses grown in presence of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid or alpha-naphthaleneacetic acid plus kinetin, showed considerable diff erences at cytological and histological level which were correlated to their different morphogenic capability.
