were the first to report the influence of Anthurium hybrid cultivars UH780, UH965 and UH1060 on somatic embryogenesis. UH780 and UH956, the two intraspecific hybrids including the tulip-type hybrid UH1060, were cultured on MS medium with varied concentration ratio of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 6-furfurylaminopurine (KIN). Impact of different cultivars in production of somatic embryos was quite prominent as UH1060 was the best performer in comparison to the other two.
