Abstract

Successful flower bud initiation and development was achieved on Boronia megastigma in vitro. The effect of cytokinin on flowering was investigated in environmental conditions that promote flowering as well as under conditions that stimulate vegetative growth (nonfloral promotory conditions). Flower initiation and differentiation was enhanced by cytokinin; however, many flower buds reverted when the media contained high levels of cytokinin. Anthesis occurred only on media that had no cytokinin added and under floral promotory conditions.
