Abstract

Read online

Recent research progresses on tissue culture (e.g. fast reproduction, another culture, protoplast culture and organogenesis) and genetic transformation of kenaf were reviewed and summarized in this paper. Existing problems were discussed, aiming to provide scientific references for promoting tissue culture and genetic transformation of kenaf.
