Abstract
Excised roots of biennial sweetclover were successfully cultured through repeated transfers on a modified White's medium solidified with agar. Roots also grew well in shaker-agitated liquid cultures over the pH range 4.5 to 7.0. Exposure of the cultures to bright illumination resulted in submaximal growth. No net synthesis of o-hydroxycinnamic acid was observed in the cultured roots.
