Abstract
A study was conducted to determine if the chlorsulfuron tolerance exis ting in barley could be improved with the use of in vitro tissue cultu re. Differential herbicide concentration led to variable culture respo nse for callus culture. Plants regenerated from callus culture were ev aluated for chlorsulfuron tolerance in the greenhouse. Regenerants sho wed improved tolerance when compared to the control or unselected tiss ue culture-derived lines.
