The histological events leading to de novo organ formation were evaluated. Darkness induces rhizogenesis in the presence of NAA, whereas direct shoot regeneration is stimulated by light and BAP. This latter condition is recommended for passionfruit micropropagation as several adventitious shoot buds were formed from meristemoids of paranchymal origin. aCultura de tecidos aHistologia aHistology aMicropropagacao aMicropropagation aPassiflora aTissue culture1 aVIEIRA, M.L.C.1 aDORNELAS, M.C. tPesquisa Agropecuaria Brasileira, Brasiliagv.34, n.11, p.2007-2013, nov.1999.
