Molecular mechanisms controlling plant totipotency are largely unknown and studies on
somatic embryogenesis (SE), the process through which already differentiated cells reverse …

Abstrac t Somatic embryogenesis (SE), the process through which already differentiated
cells reverse their developmental programme and become embryogenic, requires drastic …

Background Totipotency is the ability of a cell to regenerate a whole organism. Plant somatic
embryogenesis (SE) is a remarkable example of totipotency because somatic cells reverse …

Transcription factors (TFs) are diverse groups of regulatory proteins. Through their specific
binding domains, TFs bind to their target genes and regulate their expression, therefore TFs …

Background Somatic embryogenesis (SE) in plants is a process by which embryos are
generated directly from somatic cells, rather than from the fused products of male and female …

Seeds are essential for human civilization, so understanding the molecular events
underpinning seed development and the zygotic embryo it contains is important. In addition …

Genome-editing technologies have advanced in recent years but designing future crops
remains limited by current methods of improving somatic embryogenesis (SE) capacity. In …

Understanding somatic cell totipotency remains a challenge facing scientific inquiry today.
Plants display remarkable cell totipotency expression, illustrated by single-cell differentiation …

In Arabidopsis, a zygote undergoes asymmetrical cell division that establishes the first two
distinct cell types of early proembryos, apical and basal cells. However, the genome-wide …

Plant cells have a powerful capacity in their propagation to adapt to environmental change,
given that a single plant cell can give rise to a whole plant via somatic embryogenesis …
