[PROBLEMS] A conventional medium support mainly composed of agar or gellan gum has a problem in that growth, proliferation and differentiation are inhibited depending on the kind of culture. [MEANS FOR SOLVING PROBLEMS] It has been found that konjac glucomannan, which has not been used as a medium support, has no inhibitory effect on the growth of cultures, and has developed a medium support based on konjac glucomannan. By using this novel medium support, a wider range of plants, microorganisms, and plant tissues can be cultured. [Selection figure] None |
