Some opinions on plant tissue/cell culture:
Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium is a good start, but culture media depend a lots on the plants you're working on; check the literature for previous work.
MS medium is quite good for induction of non-organized growth (callus), but may prevent plant organogenesis.
Half strength MS (MS/2), Gamborg’s B-5 Medium and Half Gamborg’s B-5 Medium may be the alternatives to reduce plant vitrification/hyperhydricity.
Microbial contamination is still the top issue in plant tissue/cell culture for both amateur and professional.
A decrease of sucrose concentration and an increase of CO
2
supply may reduce fungal/microbial contamination.
Consider co-culture of plant tissue/cell with its naturally associated microorganisms if stubborn contamination occurs.
Check our contamination inhibitors SHY and TICO, natural plant/microorganism extracts.
