Lemon [Citrus limon (L.) Burm.] styles were treated with different growth regulators for induction of somatic embryos. Styles and stigmas were dissected from flowers and cultured on a Murashige and Skoog (MS) basal medium supplemented with 4.52 ~tM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 13.3 laM 6-benzyl~nine. Callus was induced from the style base 2 weeks after the treatment initiation, and embryos appeared 2 months later.
