Cryopreservation of coconut plumule using droplet vitrification
In the present investigation, four types of explants from mature zygotic embryos of coconut, viz., whole upper cotyledonary region without haustorium, half of the upper cotyledonary region without haustorium, plumule with a portion of radicle and exclusively plumular tissue, were cultured in 12 different media combinations to find a suitable explant ...

Metabolomics Analyses of Cotyledon and Plumule Showing the Potential Domestic Selection in Lotus Breeding [PDF]
Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) seeds are widely consumed as functional food or herbal medicine, of which cotyledon (CL) is the main edible part, and lotus plumule (LP) is commonly utilized in traditional Chinese medicine. However, few studies have been conducted to investigate the chemical components of CL and LP in dry lotus seeds, not to mention the ...

Improved somatic embryogenesis from Cocos nucifera (L.) plumule explants
Coconut is one of the most recalcitrant species to regenerate in vitro. Although previous research efforts using plumule explants have resulted in reproducible somatic embryogenesis, efficiency is only 4 or 10 somatic embryos per plumule without or with a brassinolide treatment, respectively. In order to increase the efficiency of somatic embryogenesis

Inhibitory effect of cotyledons on plumule development in two alpine rosettes
The plumule in rosette plants showing the phenomenon of "pseudomonocotyly" remains in a quiescent stage at the base of the cotyledonary tube, and this quiescent stage appears to be due to the inhibitory influence of the cotyledons. This correlative inhibition in which the development of the embryonic apical region is influenced by the cotyledon may be
