Application of Embryo Rescue Technique in Juglans regia L. x J. nigra L. Hybridization

Embryo culture were used to produce inter specific walnut hybrid plants between Juglans nigra L. and J. regia L. Developed ovaries were collected from J. rejia female flowers which were pollinated with J. nigra pollen grain by high dusting on a mature tree. In order to isolate embryos, exocarps were aseptically removed. Isolated embryos from ovules at different developmental stages were transfe...

An Embryo Staging System for Comparison of Zygotic and Somatic Embryo Development

An embryo classification system has been developed based on observations of Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco (Douglas-fir) and Pinus taeda L. (loblolly pine) zygotic embryos and on the literature concerning embryology within the pine family. This system is suitable for classification of both zygotic and somatic embryos of loblolly pine, Picea abies L. (Norway spruce), and Douglas-fir. This ...

inter-specific hybrids in beta genus using embryo rescue technique

interspecific or intergenus hybridization in sugarbeet (b. vulgaris l.) is usually failed due to non fertilization, embryo death or absence of connection between embryo and endosperm. consequently invitro embryo rescue technique is of value to save hybrid embryos before annihilation. sugar beet inter-specific crosses with wild species is impossible in classical breeding because of no chromosoma...

STAT Is an Essential Activator of the Zygotic Genome in the Early Drosophila Embryo

In many organisms, transcription of the zygotic genome begins during the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT), which is characterized by a dramatic increase in global transcriptional activities and coincides with embryonic stem cell differentiation. In Drosophila, it has been shown that maternal morphogen gradients and ubiquitously distributed general transcription factors may cooperate to upre...
