Abstract Foliar discs (8 mm diameter) from expanding leaves of the middle part of vegetative shoots of Chrysanthemum morifolium Ramat raised in vitro were induced to form directly on specific media in vitro either roots or vegetative buds, or callus. The budding programme, on its specific medium, was deviated to callus formation by the addition of 2 mM β-OH-E (β-OH-ethyldrazine, an inhibitor of diamine oxidase). Conversely vegetative buds instead of callus were formed on the callus medium in the presence of 2 mM DFMO (difluoromethylornithine, an inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase). Callus formation was characterized by high accumulation of free and particularly conjugated polyamines (PA), very low or undetectable activities of diamine- and polyamine oxidases, and transglutaminase. DFMO-deviation of callus initiation in favour of bud formation lowered the accumulation of PA and increased the activity of amine-oxidases. The high catabolism of PA in the organogenic (rooting, budding) programs was questioned as to its role in developmental processes.
