This study describes the impact of sorbitol on plantlets regeneration frequency (PRF) of four rice cultivars (japonica, Oryza sativa L.) both of which mature and immature embryo-derived calli were investigated. The variance analysis results showed that PRF of the three elite upland rice cultivars, Handao297 (HD297), Handao502 (HD502), Handao65 (HD65) and one lowland rice cultivar Zhongzuo93 (ZZ93) were significantly increased with addition of appropriate amount of sorbitol in culture media. Supplementing appropriate sorbitol in the media of a continous culture from induction and maintenance to regeneration for mature embryo-derived calli could improve PRF dramatically, originally from 27.6 % up to a maximum of 71.8 % . Especially to low regenerative capacity (LRC) cultivar HD65, the PRF was increased over 7-fold (from 9.7 % to 74.0 % ). The optimum concentrations of sorbitol for calli induction, subculture and differentiation were 5, 20 and 40 g/l, respectively. Adding sorbitol, only in maintenance media at concentration of 20 g/l, also enhanced the PRF greatly in all the cultivars from 27.6 % to 43.3 % . Similar results were observed when incorporating with maltose in regenerating media both in immature and mature embryo-derived calli. The optimal concentration was 25 g/l sorbitol + 20 g/l maltose and 20 g/l sorbitol + 25 g/l maltose, respectively. HD297 appeared to be the most responsive genotype compared to other cultivars in PRF, 99.2 % in immature embryo-derived calli and 76.8 % in mature embryo-derived calli. The results and relevant conclusions might be valuable to establish an efficient plant regeneration system from somatic embryogenesis culture in upland rice.
