When I was still in college, back in the late 1980's, I had some older, abused seed that I surface sterilized and sowed in vitro. Most of the different species I tried this with had fairly good germination after a month, and I eventually transplanted them into typical media and grew them in more traditional ways. An exception was Drosera aliciae. The Drosera aliciae seed did not germinate in a typical way, in vitro the Drosera aliciae seed began to produce small callus-like growths that appeared to expand from the testa in the vicinity where the embryo would have been. Eventually some of the callus differentiated into roots and shoots, usually more than one per seed.
I was wondering if anyone else working with tissue culture had similar experiences from any CP species.
