The Potentiality of the Embryo and the Somatic Cell [PDF]
Metaphilosophy, 2014 AbstractRecent arguments on the ethics of stem cell research have taken a novel approach to the question of the moral status of the embryo. One influential argument focuses on a property that the embryo is said to possess—namely, the property of being an entity with a rational nature or, less controversially, an entity that has the potential to acquire

Biologia Plantarum, 2011 Somatic embryogenesis has been obtained in many citrus cultivars. However, culture synchronization is yet to be achieved and in the present work we evaluate the effect of desiccation, cold and size of cell clusters on embryo production efficiency from ...

Endogenous auxin maintains embryonic cell identity and promotes somatic embryo development in Arabidopsis. [PDF]
Plant J, 2023 Somatic embryogenesis (SE), or embryo development from in vitro cultured vegetative explants, can be induced in Arabidopsis by the synthetic auxin 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) or by overexpression of specific transcription factors, such as AT ...

The identification and characterisation of key genes involved in somatic embryogenesis in wheat (Triticum, aestivum L.) [PDF]
, 2007 One of the most remarkable aspects of plants cells is that on application of the plant hormone auxin, they possess the unique ability to de-differentiate and return to embryonic development, via a process known as `somatic embryogenesis' (SE). On removal

Variability in somatic embryo-forming capacity of spinach. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 AbstractHigh variability in somatic embryo (SE)-forming capacity has previously been observed in several spinach cultivars. Such variability frequently accounted for more variation in embryogenic response of the explants than the factor being investigated.

Embryonic proteins in somatic embryos of carrot [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1981 The translational profile of cultured carrot cells (callus) was compared with that of the somatic embryos derived from them. The two tissues synthesize almost the same number and kinds of polypeptides except for two “embryonic” proteins. These were found in the somatic embryos but were nearly undetectable in the callus.
