Embryogenic tissue was induced from embryonic explants of Pinus patula, using intact
female gametophytes containing immature embryos. Cone collections were carried out …

Maturation of slash pine (Pinus elliottii Engelm.) somatic embryos was achieved using two
protocols, each starting with a different agar incubation step to deplete plant growth …

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) of Pinus strobus L. has been greatly improved over the last few
years with respect to both the initiation frequencies from a number of seed families and …

Maritime pine somatic embryos (SE s) require a reduction in water availability (high gellan
gum concentration in the maturation medium) to reach the cotyledonary stage. This key …

In vitro conditions of the culture media, plant growth regulators and culture containers may
cause anatomical and physiological changes that have negative effects on rooting and ex …

Traditionally, many efforts have been carried out in order to improve the success of somatic
embryogenesis process in conifers, but little attention has been paid to the influence of the …

Pinus radiata is one of the most important forestry species in the southern hemisphere. This
work describes the regeneration of this plant via somatic embryogenesis from immature …

This is the first report on Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) somatic embryo plants regenerated
and growing in a greenhouse. The present work focused on improving somatic …

The principal aim of this investigation was to improve somatic embryogenesis initiation and
to enhance representation of families and genotypes within those families of Pinus radiata …

Low initiation frequency is one of the main barriers in applying somatic embryogenesis to
the clonal production of Pinus species. Factors affecting initiation, including basal medium …
