Effect of NaCl concentration on embryogenic callus growth and plant regeneration of Pennisetum Purpureum Schumach (Napier grass) in vitro
Pennisetum americanum(Napier or elephant grass) and P.americanum × P.purpureum (Hybrid Pennisetum) are important forage and energy crops.In order to guarantee food safety, breeding salt-tolerant napier grass and hybrid Pennisetum are of great significance for utilizing plentiful arid and saline land to satisfy need of livestock and production of biomass energy in China. Only one paper reported selection of NaCl tolerant cells from leaf-derived embryogenic cultures of napier grass till now ( Stephen and INDRA,1984).This report describes effect of NaCl concentration in medium on from immature inflorescences embryogenic callus growth and plant regeneration of Pennisetum Purpureum N51,which is R line of registered variety.Hybrid pennisetum( Tift 23A CMS pearl millet × N51 Napier grass).
