This review compiles research results published over the last 14 years on conifer somatic
embryogenesis (SE). Emphasis is placed on the newest findings that affect the response of …

Somatic embryogenesis was achieved in the conifers Pinus nigra Arn. and in the hybrids
Abies alba× A. cephalonica and Abies alba× A. numidica. For initiation of embryogenic …

Somatic embryogenesis, as a promising biotechnological tool for many conifer trees, has
never been applied for the Abies nebrodensis species. Although all the encouraging results …

The somatic embryogenesis of conifers is a process susceptible to exogenous
phytohormonal treatments. We report the effects of the synthetic auxin 2, 4 …

Pinus halepensis Mill. is a common forest species in the Mediterranean area and it is
important for environmental conservation. This study established a method of regenerating …

Sorbus aucuparia L. is an important forest tree used in the reforestation of high-altitude
mountainous areas, which carries significant pharmaceutical, industrial, ornamental, food …

In coniferous species, including Greek fir (Abies cephalonica Loud), the involvement of
somatic embryo plants in breeding and reforestation programs is dependent on the success …

For promoting the maturation of two embryogenic cell lines of Abies cephalonica Loud., the
effect of two sucrose concentrations (87.6 and 175.2 mM) applied alone (Control) or in …

The present work reports changes in bioenergetic parameters and mitochondrial activities
during the manifestation of two events of programmed cell death (PCD), linked to Abies alba …

The somatic embryogenic regeneration system is an ideal model system to study the
regulation of early developmental processes and morphogenesis in gymnosperms. We have …
