Secondary somatic embryos appeared on the cotyledons and radiculi of embryos derived from suspension and anther cultures of Aesculus hippocastanum L. The highest number of secondary somatic embryos formed on a hormone-free medium.

Keywords: androgenesis; horse chestnut
Subjects: Aesculus hippocastanum; androgenesis, anther culture, androgenic embryos; embryo development, somatic; embryogenesis, secondary; horse chestnut, microspore culture; in vitro culture, somatic embryogenesis; nutrient medium MS (Murashige and Skoog)
