발아된 벼(Oryza sativa L. cv. Nakdong)의 하배 축에서 callus를 유도하고, 현탁배양한 세포에서 원 형질체를 분리하여 MS 배지에서 재분화를 수행하였다. Callus는 하배축으로부터 $2.5mg/{ell}2$,4-0를 첨가한 LS 배지에서 최고 65%의 치상효율로 유도되었으며, 형태척으로 선별 가능한 embryogenic callus 는 $2mg/{ell}2$,4-D, O.2mgj P kinetin과 $0.1mg/{ell} GA_3$ 가 첨가된 AA, 배지에서 현탁배양하였다. 4개월 이상 현탁배양한 세포로부터 분리한 원형질체는 voltage를 400V jern와 Imsec 통안 electroporation했을 때 $2.5mg/{ell}2$,4-D, $0.1mg/{ell}$kinetin과 lOmM proline이 첨가된 PCM 배지에서 1.1%의 치 상효율을 보였다. 형성된 microcalli는 LS2.5 배지 에 치상된 feeder cell에 $0.2mu extrm{m}$membrane filter를 얹은 위에 옮겨 암소에서 2주 동안 배양한 후, $30{pm}/3{mu}E$.m^{-2}S^{-1}의 형광하에서 2주 통안 배양했을 때 2mm 직경의 노란색 callus를 형성하였다. 형성된 callus를 재분화 배지에 치상하였을 때, 녹점 green spot)에서 shoot 형성과정을 거쳐 완전한 식물체로 분화되었으며 재분화율은 1l~33%였다.
Calli were induced from leaf base region of germinated rice(Oryza sativa L. cv. Nakdong) with high frequency of up to 65% on LS medium supplemented with $2.5mg/{ell}2$, 4-D in the dark at $27^{circ}C$. Embryogenic calli of pale yellow, globular type were selected and used for the initiation of cell suspension cultures in AA2 liquid medium with $2mg/ell$ 2,4-D, 0.2mg/$ell$ kinetin arid $0.1mg/ell$ GA3. Protoplasts were isolated from the embryogenic cell suspensions after 4 months of culture and then were electroporated with 400V/cm for 1 msec. Electroporated protoplasts divided with plating efficiency of 1.1% on PCM liquid medium supplemented with $2.5mg/ell$ 2, 4-D, $0.1mg/ell$ kinetin and 10mM proline. The protoplasts-derived microcalli were cultured on $0.2{mu}m$ membrane fitter placed onto LS2.5 solid medium containing fine suspension cells as a feeder cells, for 2 weeks in the dark at $27^{circ}C$. After an additional 2 weeks of culture under fluorescent light of $30{pm}/3{mu}E$.m^{-2}S^{-1}, yellow calli of 2mm diameter were transferred to regeneration medium. Shoots were produced from the green spot of protoplasts-derived calli and plants were regenerated form protoplast-derived green calli with frequencies of 11∼33%.
