ABSTRACT
Cutin fluorescence, after auramine O treatment, was detected on the surface of organogenic areas (protuberances) of endosperm derived callus induced on Murashige and Skoog medium with thidiazuron (0.5 mg l(-1)) in darkness. Electron micrographs of the protuberances revealed cuticle, visible as a dark-staining layer, and amorphous waxes on the cell wall. In some cases the cells of the epidermis-like layer and shoot buds at early stages of development showed thick and characteristically wavy cutin. This waviness corresponds with the wrinkled appearance of the cell wall as observed by scanning electron microscopy. The role of multivesicular bodies in cutin production and transfer to the plasma membrane is discussed.
