Automation and Scale Up of Somatic Embryogenesis for Commercial Plant Production, With Emphasis on Conifers

For large scale production of clonal plants, somatic embryogenesis (SE) has many advantages over other clonal propagation methods such as the rooting of cuttings. In particular, the SE process is more suited to scale up and automation, thereby reducing labor costs and increasing the reliability of t...
