? 2022 Elsevier B.V.The palm Euterpe edulis presents primary meristematic growth without sprouting at the base, which prevents conventional vegetative propagation. Here, we assessed the effect of the herbicides 2,4-D and picloram on somatic embryogenesis as an alternative means for propagating and in vitro conservation of pro-embryogenic cultures of E. edulis, as their seeds are recalcitrant. Embryos could be effectively induced with 2,4-D (159.42 μmol L?1) and PIC (300 μmol L?1), totaling 44.33 and 76.33 embryos, respectively. Moreover, proembryos, embryogenic clusters, and somatic embryos were clearly visible. Embryogenic and meristematic cells presented marked staining of the cytoplasm, spherical shape of the cells and nucleus, and rapidly dividing nucleoli. Maturation of explants induced with 2,4-D and PIC was improved by adding 2iP (12.3 μmol L?1), NAA (0.6 μmol L?1), and AC (0.3 g L?1). During germination, BAP (1 μmol L?1) and GA3 (0.5 μmol L?1) promoted primary root protrusion and emergence of the shoot. In summary, PIC (300 μmol L?1) is suggested for embryogenic induction of E. edulis calli, and medium containing 2iP, NAA, and AC is suggested for maturation. Finally, medium containing BAP and GA3 without an auxin pulse favors the conversion of E. edulis somatic embryos into plants.
