TL;DR: Embryogenic suspension cultures of domesticated carrot are characterized by the presence of proembryogenic masses, from which somatic embryos develop under conditions of low cell density in the absence of phytohormones, and hybridization of an embryoregulated complementary-DNA sequence showed that the corresponding gene is expressed in Somatic embryos and PEMs but not in non- Embryogenic cells.

TL;DR: Results indicate that many of the molecular processes of embryogenesis are already established in PEMs in the presence of auxin, and indicate the utility of Dc3 as a molecular marker for the acquisition of embryogenic potential.

TL;DR: Significant progress has been made during the past five years in the area of plant regeneration via organogenesis and somatic embryogenesis for economically important tree species and the ability to extend gene cloning and genomics technology to the most elite germplasm becomes an economically feasible means for large-scale production and delivery of improved planting stock.

TL;DR: Cells of yellow-poplar (Liriodendron tulipifera L.) were transformed by direct gene transfer and regenerated into plants by somatic embryogenesis, and transgenic plants sampled expressed the two marker genes in both root and shoot tissues.

TL;DR: Peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) lines transgenic for the antisense nucleocapsid (N) gene of a Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) strain isolated from peanut were generated by microprojectile-mediated transformation of repetitive somatic embryos of cultivars VC1 and AT120, generating hygromycin-resistant lines.
