Plant regeneration via organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis was investigated in Korean soybean cultivars including Cheongja 3, Jinpumkong 2, Taekwangkong and Uram. Cotyledon, cotyledon+hypocotyl and hypocotyl segments of 7-day-old seedlings were cultured on MS medium containing various concentration (0, 1, 2 and 4 ㎎/L) of BA and TDZ. The results showed that MS medium supplemented with BA 2.0 ㎎/L yielded the highest shoot formation ratio of 83.3%. In 4 cultivars, Taekwangkong showed the highest ratio of shoot formation. When various sizes of immature cotyledons (S: 1∼ 2 ㎜, M: 3∼5 ㎜, L: 6∼8 ㎜) were tested on MS medium containing 2,4-D 40 ㎎/L for somatic embryogenesis, the optimum size for embryogenic callus induction was 3∼5 ㎜ in length of immature cotyledons. In 4 cultivars, Taekwangkong showed the highest percentage of embryogenic callus induction. The results indicate that Taekwangkong is the best soybean cultivar for plant regeneration via organogenesis and embryogenic callus induction among the 4 cultivars.
