Now, in collaboration with researchers from UC Berkeley's Innovative Genomics Institute, the team has shown that simultaneously activating a second gene, WOX9A, increases the success rate to ...

How plants put down roots: Geneticists research organ development in the plant embryo. ScienceDaily. Retrieved May 2, 2025 from www.sciencedaily.com / releases / 2010 / 03 / 100315132706.htm.

Plant embryos are found within seeds and, once germinated, give rise to the adult plant. It was previously thought that embryo development was determined by the genetic make-up of the embryo alone.

Programmed cell death eliminates subordinate embryos. A hallmark feature of pine embryogeny is that a single, zygote-derived early embryo (Figure 1; 1 week after fertilization (waf)) cleaves to ...
