“…Among fruit trees, peach is recognized as one of the most recalcitrant species in terms of in vitro organogenesis [ 2 ], and only a few studies report the establishment of efficient and reproducible regeneration protocols starting from different explants of peach rootstocks and cultivars. Although the use of adult tissues is highly recommended to preserve desirable traits of peach selected clones [ 3 ], adventitious shoots regeneration starting from seed-derived material has been the main successful approach used in the past for this species [ 4 , 5 , 6 , 7 , 8 ]. However, peach adventitious shoot regeneration, avoiding the use of juvenile tissues, has also been recorded starting from meristematic tissues [ 2 , 3 , 9 ] and leaves [ 10 , 11 , 12 , 13 ].…”
