Callogenesis, somatic embryogenesis and regeneration capacity in twenty-three agronomically important spring barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) cultivars on induction media with 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or 3,6-dichloro-o-anisic acid (dicamba) and on modified regeneration media were studied. The frequency of zygotic embryos exhibiting callogenesis varied from 88 to 100 % according to genotype. Dicamba was more suitable for somatic embryogenesis induction and exhibited a higher frequency of regenerants than did 2,4-D. Green regenerants were obtained in all cultivars, and there were no albino plants. Except for cv. Victor all cultivars used in the experiment showed lower regeneration capacity as compared to the model cv. Golden Promise.
