Monoclonal antibodies against marker proteins for somatic embryogenesis

  • Chapter
Plant Tissue Culture Manual

Abstract

The unique ability of somatic plant cells to regenerate intact plants via somatic embryogenesis is an elegant tool to obtain plants with selected characters (e. g. resistance to fungi, improved quality). Besides this, somatic embryos will provide easily accessible material to study developmental processes in plants.
