Abstract The use of the synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d) has played an important role in the production and maintenance of totipotent cereal callus. However, 2,4-d has been implicated in the loss of totipotency from barley callus. To examine the effect of 2,4-d on barley callus, regenerability and karyotype were examined over time as influenced by cultivar differences and 2,4-d levels, during a period in which initially vigorous plant regeneration typically declines dramatically. Higher (20.4–27.1 μM) versus lower (6.8–13.6 μM) concentrations of 2,4-d were positively associated with the number of green plantlets recovered from calli maintained for 10 and 16 weeks before transfer to regeneration media, and with the longevity of regenerability. There was a positive relationship between 2,4-d concentration and normal karyotype. We also investigated the use of phenylacetic acid for the initiation of regenerable barley callus. Very poor callus growth and plant regeneration was supported by phenylacetic acid.
