Abstract
Seven cell lines of Nicotiana tabacum resistant to the herbicide picloram were isolated from cell cultures. In crosses of plants regenerated from four cell lines, resistance was inherited as a single dominant Mendelian allele. Plants could not be regenerated from one cell line, and expression of resistance proved unstable in two others.
Keywords: cell culture, picloram tolerance, plant regeneration, Mendelian inheritance
