    Notes: Summary A new simple, efficient and rapid in vitro method for mass clonal propagation of leek (Allium ampeloprasum L.) plants, using small (5 mm) flower stalk (peduncle) explants, was established. Adventitious shoots were produced from single subepidermal cells. A wide variation in the percentage of regenerating explants and number of regenerated shoots per explant between individual plants within one cultivar was observed. The concentration of the growth regulators 6-benzylaminopurine and α-naphthalene-acetic acid influenced the percentage of regenerating explants and the average number of regenerated shoots per explant. A combination of 10 mg.l−1 6-benzylaminopurine and 10 mg.l−1 α-naphthalene-acetic acid, resulted in a maximum percentage of regenerating explants and a high average number of regenerated shoots per explant. The percentage of regenerating explants and the average number of regenerated shoots per explant decreased with increasing flower stalk length (age). The basal explants gave both the highest percentage of regenerating explants and average number of regenerated shoots per explant. An average of 300 shoots per flower stalk was obtained for all plants, making this new in vitro method a powerful tool in hybrid leek breeding.

    Notes: Summary A high frequency plant regeneration system via organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis was established with callus cultures derived from mature zygotic embryos of different leek genotypes (Allium ampeloprasum L.). Four different callus types with varying morphogenetic potential were obtained. Relatively high concentrations of the auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxy-acetic acid reduced callus weight and subsequent shoot regeneration and primordia formation of the callus. Shoot regeneration and primordia formation of the callus decreased after prolonged subculture on media containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid. A callus growth period of six weeks on Murashige and Skoog medium with 0.25–0.5 mg l-1 2,4-dichlorophenoxy acetic acid showed the highest rate of shoot regeneration after transfer of callus to regeneration medium with 1 mg l-1 kinetin. Differences between leek genotypes in callus type, callus weight, shoot regeneration and primordia formation were observed. Histological observations showed that plant regeneration took place, both via the pathway of somatic embryogenesis and organogenesis.
