Introduction
Description: Contains the macro- and micronutrients, and organic constituents as described by Lichter (1982). Without sucrose.
This medium was derived from that described by Nitsch & Nitsch and was developed to support the initiation and growth of haploid plants from anther and pollen cultures of Brassica napus. This medium contains the equivalent of 500 mg/L Calcium Nitrate tetrahydrate as described in the original formulation.
