Embryogenesis in plants is a unique process in the sense that it can be initiated from a wide
range of cells other than the zygote. Upon stress, microspores or young pollen grains can be …

Under stress, isolated microspores are reprogrammed in vitro towards embryogenesis,
producing doubled haploid plants that are useful biotechnological tools in plant breeding as …

In the early 1990s, many basic protocols were developed for haploidy and doubled
haploidy, but most were inefficient. During the last decade, progress in technology has been …

Androgenesis can be defined as the set of biological processes leading to an individual
genetically coming exclusively from a male nucleus. Androgenesis was traditionally …

Microspore embryogenesis is the most powerful androgenic pathway to produce haploid
and doubled haploid plants. To deviate a microspore toward embryogenesis, a number of …

Tomato, eggplant, and pepper are three solanaceous crops of outstanding importance
worldwide. For hybrid seed production in these species, a fast and cheap method to obtain …

Arabinogalactan proteins (AGP s) are highly glycosylated, hydroxyproline‐rich proteins
found at the cell surface of plants, where they play key roles in developmental processes …

Androgenesis, which entails cell fate redirection within the microgametophyte, is employed
widely for genetic gain in plant breeding programs. Moreover, androgenesis-responsive …

The objective of this study was to improve induction of embryogenesis in wheat microspore
culture in order to obtain a high number of regenerable embryos. The arabinogalactan (AG) …

Somatic embryogenesis is a reliable system for in vitro plant regeneration, with
biotechnological applications in trees, but the regulating mechanisms are largely unknown …
