Response of acc1-1 embryos cultured in vitro to exogenously supplied malonate

Concentration of malonate (mM)	Embryos cultured	Embryo response after 2 weeks in culture (%)
		Dead embryos	Yellow calli	Green calli	Leafy plantlets
0	65	100	0	0	0
3	62	10	66	24	0
10	110	6	41	45	8

Mutant embryos excised at 15 DAA were cultured on basal medium and sprayed every 2 days with malonate.
