Embryo development in Cocos nucifera L.: A critical contribution to a general understanding of palm embryogenesis
1979
InCocos (and probably in all other palms) the embryogenesis shows a number of primitive characters, such as differentiation of the embryo proper from one cell of the pluricellular proembryo, origin of the single cotyledon from a position lateral to the terminal stem tip, and a tendency to cleavage polyembryony.
Somatic embryogenesis of Vitis vinifera L. (cv Sugraone) from stigma and style culture
2015
Somatic embryo and plant regeneration were induced from stigma and style culture of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Sugraone). To obtain somatic embryogenesis, explants were cultured on Nitsch and Nitsch basal medium (NN) supplemented with 88 mM sucrose and various combinations of the auxin β-naphthoxyacetic acid (NOA, 0-10 μM) and the cytokinin 6-benzylaminopurine (BA, 0-9 μM). Growth regulators (BA and NOA) in the culture medium were essential for induction of somatic embryogenesis since explants incubated on hormone-free medium never regenerated somatic embryos. Usually, the regenerated somatic embryos become visible as small white globular structures on the surface of the callus 3-4 mo…
