Overexpression of Douglas-Fir <i>LEAFY COTYLEDON1</i> (<i>PmLEC1</i>) in <i>Arabidopsis</i> Induces Embryonic Programs and Embryo-like Structures in the <i>lec1-1</i> Mutant but Not in Wild Type Plants

Overexpression of Douglas-Fir <i>LEAFY COTYLEDON1</i> (<i>PmLEC1</i>) in <i>Arabidopsis</i> Induces Embryonic Programs and Embryo-like Structures in the <i>lec1-1</i> Mutant but Not in Wild Type Plants

Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is the most promising method for the quick propagation of desirable plant genotypes. However, application of SE to conifers remains challenging due to our limited knowledge about the genes involved in embryogenesis and the processes that lead to somatic embryo formation. D...
