Growth Of Tissue Culture Plantletsof Loblolly Pine In A Nursery And Greenhouse

Tissue culture plantlets of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) were grown in a nursery and a greenhouse in the summer of 1982 to compare the growth and developmental patterns of the trees in the two environments. The plantlets were compared to seedlings, excised embryos (embryos removed from the female gametophyte and grown in tissue culture medium), and rooted hypocotyls (embryos cut at the mid hypocotyl region and rooted "in vitro").
