- Intervention effect Perforation produced larger peach embryos.
- Intervention effect Added vitamins and hormones produced more roots and shoots in plants from unperforated embryos.
- Intervention effect The added vitamins and hormones did not necessarily improve survival.
- Observation Both tested sucrose levels worked reasonably well.
- Association Longer in-ovule treatment enhanced embryo growth and plant survival.
