The effects of exogenous polyamines and growth regulators on plating efficiency of greenhouse-grown sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas Lam.) petiole protoplasts after six days were analyzed using a central composite test design. The medium components screened were 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), putrescine (PUT), spermidine (SPD), and spermine (SPM), each at five concentrations. Stepwise multiple regression analysis revealed significant interaction of NAA with BAP, PUT, and SPD as reflected in plating efficiencies. The interactions of NAA with BAP, and with SPD, were positive. The interaction of NAA and PUT appeared complex. A slight negative interaction was detected between PUT and SPM. These results indicated that plating efficiency of sweet potato protoplasts is highly sensitive to the concentrations of the medium components tested and it should be possible to further optimize the plating medium. Among the media formulations tested, the highest plating efficiency (10.8% after 6 days) was observed with NAA at 4.5 uM, BAP at 1.5 uM, PUT at 35.0 uM, SPD at 5.0 uM, and SPM at 2.5 uM.
