Vegetable stachys

(Stachys sieboldii Mig

.) is the tuber-forming perennial

plant from

Labiatae

family. It has valuable dietic properties because his

tubers possess o f some biologically active substances such as rare

tetrasaccharide stachiose that can substitute saccharose. Stachys is

propagated only by vegetative manner ( by tubers), so it is very interesting

to use cell culture methods to produce new forms o f plants and cell lines

with high productivity. So the first goal was to study the influence of

phytohormones to the callus and organ production by stachys explants. It

was found that 2,4-D was ineffective in callus induction at stachys: addition

of this auxin to culture medium causes necrotic processes and destruction

of ail explants (nodal and stem segments, leaf and root explants). With

NAA addition most explants had some soft callus with many roots. The

most effective in soft callus induction were 2,4,5-trichlorophenoxyacetic and

4-chlorophenoxyacetic acids. But the attempts to recultivate such callus

cause necrosis and its death even on the culture media with antioxidants.

Adventitious bud formation we observed at culture media with 1-2 mg/l

kinetin or 6-BAP only at the nodal explants having meristematic zones.

Sporadic shoot formation took place at the primary leaf callus. Spontaneous

rhizogenesis was observed at stem nodal segments after 3-7 days at the

hormone-free media. The addition of 0,1-1 mg/l IBA or NAA stimulated

rhizogenesis.
