Summary
The addition of conditioned media extracted from 8 day old embryo culture accelerated growth and production of torpedo embryos and plantlets in cell suspension cultures ofDaucus carota. The production of late-stage embryos was increased a maximum threefold (up to 1500 embryos/ml) compared with that of control culture, when spent medium was added during inoculation.
