Plant embryogenesis results from the fusion of male and female gametes but can also be
induced in somatic cells. The molecular pathways for embryo initiation are poorly …

Somatic embryogenesis, a powerful tool for clonal propagation and for plant transformation,
involves cellular reprogramming of differentiated somatic cells to acquire pluripotency …

Rice inflorescence development determines yield and relies on the activity of axillary
meristems (AMs); however, high‐resolution analysis of its early development is lacking …

Somatic embryogenesis is a unique process in plants and has considerable interest for
biotechnological application. Compare to japonica, indica rice has been less responsive to …

Somatic embryogenesis is a type of plant cell totipotency where embryos develop from
nonreproductive (vegetative) cells without fertilization. Somatic embryogenesis can be …

Embryogenesis in flowering plants has fascinated biologists since at least the 19th century.
Embryos of almost all flowering plants share common characteristics, including an …

The molecular pathways that trigger the initiation of embryogenesis after fertilization in
flowering plants, and prevent its occurrence without fertilization, are not well understood …

The cell cycle is an important process during seed development in plants and its
progression is driven by a number of core regulators such as the cyclins. Currently, however …

Auxin is a phytohormone essential for plant development. However, our understanding of
auxin-regulated endosperm development remains limited. Here, we described rice YUCCA …

Embryonic development represents an important reproductive phase of sexually
reproducing plant species. The fusion of egg and sperm produces the plant zygote, a …
