Culture system of Pogonatum inlexum was established using C-1 medium containing 3% sucrose, 5×10^<-6>M 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and 1×10^<-5>M 6-benzyl aminopurine. The cultured cells were desiccated rapidly or slowly and then cryopreserved in liquid nitrogen. Almost 100% cells survived desiccation and cryopreservation. The desiccated cells survived room temperature for 1 month. As the preculture was not needed for the desiccation and preservation, it was considered that they have high desiccation tolerance naturally.
