dc.description.abstractIn vitro plant regeneration of Aechmea 'Little Harv' and Tillandsia cyanea, (Bromeliaceae), two endangered and important ornamental bromeliads native to Ecuador was achieved from seedling explants. T cyanea seedlings germinated or underwent indirect shoot organogenesis from callus when cultivated in a Murashige and Skoog (1962) nutrient medium in the presence of various levels of NAA (0.5 or 1.0 mg 1(-1)) in combination with BAP (0.1, 0.5 or 1.0 mg 1(-1)), plus 40 mg 1(-1) adenine. A. 'Little Harv' seed explants formed adventitious shoots without callus initiation. In both plants, the best shoot regeneration (approx. 9-10 shoots/explant) was obtained using 10 mg 1(-1) NAA and 0.1 mg 1(-1) BAP, in combination with adenine, but other growth regulator combinations were also successful. In the case of Aechmea, the addition of IAA instead of NAA was less efficient (2 shoots/explant). In addition to shoot formation 1 mg 1(-1) NAA and 0.1 mg 1(-1) induced callus on approx. 30% of T cyanea and 8% of A. 'Little Harv' explants. Isolated shoots formed roots after subculture in growth regulator-free media.
