Popis: The present work describes the plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis in two wild cotton species belonging to G genome: Gossypium nelsonii Fryx and Gossypium australe F Muell. The role of plant hormones and carbohydrates was also evaluated for somatic embryogenesis and somatic embryo development. Normal plants were obtained from G. nelsonii Fryx; abnormal plants and somatic embryos were obtained from G. australe F Muell. The best medium for callus induction for these G genome wild cotton species was MSB5 supplemented with 0.1 mg L−1 KT and 0.1 mg L−1 2,4-D. For embryogenic callus proliferation, the best medium used was MSB5 supplemented with 0.2 mg L−1 KT and 0.5 mg L−1 IBA. The medium MSB5 supplemented with 0.15 mg L−1 KT and 0.5 mg L−1 NAA was used successfully for root initiation and plant growth. In addition, adding CuSO4 and AgNO3 in the callus-inducing and proliferation medium resulted in a number of somatic embryos. Glucose and maltose, the carbon sources in somatic culture, were used for callus induction, but maltose worked even better than glucose for proliferation of embryogenic callus and development of somatic embryos.
