Abstract Callus cultures of 18 sugarbeet (Beta vulgaris) lines, two accessions of B. maritima and a B. macrocarpa accession were initiated from aseptically germinated seeds. Plant regeneration through organogenesis was obtained either on MS or B5 medium containing various concentrations and combinations of naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) and abscisic acid (ABA). Genotypes differed in their abilities of callus formation and regeneration: seven out of 18 sugarbeet lines, and an accession of B. maritima were capable of regenerating plantlets. Our data also indicated that 2 μM TIBA promoted morphogenesis from callus culture in the presence of 5 μM BAP.
