Environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis has recently transformed and modernized biodiversity
monitoring. The accurate detection, and to some extent quantification, of organisms …

Plant cells have the capacity to generate a new plant without egg fertilization by a process
known as somatic embryogenesis (SE), in which differentiated somatic cells can form …

Main conclusion Genetic transformation allows for greater bixin or norbixin production in
achiote. Knowledge of genes that control the biosynthesis of these important secondary …

Somatic embryogenesis is a powerful biotechnological tool for the mass production of
economically important cultivars. Due to the cellular totipotency of plants, somatic cells …
