Plant hormones play critical roles in the establishment of somatic embryogenesis. During this process, somatic plant cells reverse their state of differentiation, acquire pluripotentiality and set up a new developmental ...

In vitro culture protocols have been developed for many species, mainly using empirical approaches, to induce somatic embryogenesis from various explant types. However, the underlying biochemical mechanisms governing ...

The study was conducted to evaluate the liver tissue weight, body fat weight, the fatty somatic index and the liver somatic index of bullfrogs subjected to three photoperiod during the growing phase (initial 30 days) and ...
