Somatic embryogenesis and plantlet regeneration from immature male inflorescence of oil palm (Elaeis guineensis Jacq). a Immature inflorescence collected from the leaf axil of dura palm. b Male inflorescence after removal of external and internal spathes. c Tissue swelling and initiation of callus on explants cultured in auxin supplemented media. d Embryogenic calli induction—note the development of globular calli. e Germination of somatic embryos. f Asynchronous somatic embryogenesis—note the heart and torpedo stages. g Plantlet regeneration from somatic embryos. h Rooting of regenerated plants. i Hardened plant of oil palm.
