Other claims from this paper (4)
- Observation The embryogenic response was auxin specific and genotype independent.
- Intervention effect One minute of vacuum infiltration with higher-concentration 2,4-D induced embryogenesis.
- Method / resource The direct embryogenesis system shortened the process by 15–20 days compared with indirect embryogenesis.
- Method / resource The direct embryogenesis system avoids secondary changes associated with dedifferentiation.
