Somatic embryos of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) were obtained by placing immature zygotic embryos on a high sucrose (12%) containing medium. The somatic embryos were first observed 6 days after culture and a callus intermediate was not formed. Histological examination revealed the classical stages of embryo development. The somatic embryos proliferated directly from the surface of the zygotic embryos and germinated after placement on a low sucrose medium. Seeds have been obtained from regenerated plants.
向日葵(Helianthus annuus)的体细胞胚是通过将未成熟的合子胚置于高浓度蔗糖(12%)培养基上获得的。培养 6 天后首次观察到体细胞胚,且未形成愈伤组织中间层。组织学检查显示出胚胎发育的经典阶段。体细胞胚直接从合子胚的表面增殖,并在低浓度蔗糖培养基上放置后发芽。已经从再生植株中获得了种子。
