Aspects related to the physical environment and characterization molecular structure of somatic embryogenesis
Journal Title: Biotecnología Vegetal - Year 2003, Vol 3, Issue 4
Abstract
In the current work, a review on the influence of the in vitro environment in the morphogenetic process of the somatic embryogenesis is carry out, specifically the effect of certain gases accumulated in the gas phase of the culture vessel; such as oxygen, dioxide of carbon and ethylene on the somatic embryogenesis. A reference to biomolecules such as proteins, isoenzime, polyamine and arabinogalactano proteins which are related with the morphogenetic process of the somatic embryogenesis is also made.

Analysis of the mineral nutrients content during the formation and maturation of somatic embryos of ‘FHIA-21’ (Musa AAAB)
Despite the advances reached using somatic embryogenesis in Musa spp., there are not studies that state the requirements of mineral nutrient during its development. This investigation aimed to determine the mineral nut...
In vitro multiplication of the malanga clone 'Viequera' (Xanthosoma spp.) In semi-automated culture systems
In Cuba, the Xanthosoma genus is highly demanded in the preference of the population in relation to other edible aroids. The temporary immersion system (TIS) may constitute a micropropagation alternative to obtain high...
Determination of the content of the main components of the culture medium during the differentiation phase of cell suspensions of Coffea arabica cv. Catimor 9722
Exhaustion of culture medium components and possible influence on the in vitro development of plants has been little studied. The current work was developed in order to know and determine contents of the main component...
Use of abscisic acid, mannitol and the reduction of the concentration of the salts of the culture medium in the in vitro conservation of Ipomoea batatas
Nodal segment from in vitro plants of Jewel clone sweet potato were culture in the following culture medias: a) Murashige and Skoog (1962) salts supplemented with abscisic acid (0.0, 1.0, 5.0 y 10.0 mg.l-1), b) Murashige...
Introduction to the immune system in plants
Many plants are invaded by pathogenic microbes that worsen their growth and reproduction. Plants have a defense system that goes from physical barriers to molecular and systemic signals, similar to the animal innate immu...
