Seed explants of A. stenosperma were cultured on MS medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurine with the aim of rescuing nonviable accessions stored in seed bank conditions. The regeneration potential of leaf explants from in vitro plants derived from embryonic axes was studied by using whole leaflets and leaflet segments. Explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with different concentrations of 6-benzylaminopurine and naphthalene acetic acid. Indirect organogenesis was observed in response to 6-benzylaminopurine, either alone or in association with naphthalene acetic acid, in both explant types. Media supplemented with naphthalene acetic acid as the sole growth regulator induced rhizogenesis in whole leaflets and leaflet segments, with subsequent shoot production directly from the roots.
