Summary Daylily plantlets with tetraploid or octaploid chromosome numbers were induced from colchicine-treated diploid callus (2n=22). Callus tissue of the daylily Hemerocallis flava L. was placed on a morphogenetic induction medium, a modified MS formula supplemented with 1 mg 2,4-D and 1 mg kinetin/liter, plus 0,10, 20, or 40 mg/liter colchicine in the dark at 12°C for 3 days and recuperated for 1 week under the same environmental conditions except that colchicine was left out. The calluses were then returned to the normal growth temperature 25°C. Ploidy was identified by chromosome counts of squashed root-tip cells collected from the newly potted plantlets and later by measurements of stomates and pollen grains. Over 50% of the plants initiated from the colchicine-treated calluses were completely tetraploid. All of the plantlets differentiated from untreated callus had a diploid number of 22. Of the 3 colchicine levels applied, the 20 mg/liter treatment appeared to be the most effective in production of tetraploidy.
