The effect of salicylic acid (SA) applied during the proliferation phase of cell suspension in vitro regeneration system of Medicago sativa L. on cell suspension growth, production of somatic embryos and their following development, germination and conversion were examined. SA is a potent inhibitor of the above processes. It is suggested that endogenous jasmonates are of some importance in regulation of somatic embryogenesis.
