Abstract

Embryogenesis has been induced from endosperm callus cultures of sandalwood (Santalum album L.). Viable plantlets developed from the embryoids on subculture to White's basal medium supplemented with 0.5 mg/l of indole acetic acid. Chromosomal analysis of the root tips showed the triploid number 3n = 30.
