Abstract
We have succeeded in producing useful interspecific hybrid using ovule -embryo culture between Gypsophila paniculata L. 'Red Sea' and G. mang inii, an incompatible combination by ordinary cross breeding methods. The hybrid plant had double flowers with a color of pale purplish pink . Hybrid characteristics of the plant were firmed by observation of pl ant form, flower type, chromosome number and peroxidase isozyme patter ns.
