- Intervention effect Optimum germination with minimum contamination occurred when 12% of the kernel remained intact.
- Intervention effect Liquid nitrogen reduced the percentage of embryos developing into intact plants.
- Observation Curtis had a significantly higher shoots-only morphogenic response than other cultivars.
- Observation Shoshoni had a significantly higher shoots-only morphogenic response than other cultivars.
- Recommendation The authors recommend altering the procedures to improve embryo survival.
