Other claims from this paper (10)
- Association Growth responses to cold treatment varied with embryo maturity.
- Association Seedling survival did not correlate with initial shoot responses.
- Observation Root growth of 83-day embryos exceeded every other maturity stage.
- Observation Seedling survival and vigor were maximal for 83-day embryos.
- Observation Initial shoot growth was greatest at 91 days and 107 days.
- Observation All shoots formed rosettes, with some subsequently expanding or developing from axillary buds.
- Association Early shoot development correlated strongly with auxin concentration.
- Association Root growth responses appeared correlated with promoter-inhibitor balance.
- Observation Embryo extracts contained three suggested growth promoters, greatest at Rf 0.70.
- Observation Two growth inhibitors were detected in embryo tissue.
