Relationship Between Polyamine and Ethylene Biosynthesis in Plants and its Significance for Morphogenesis in Cell Cultures

Abstract

The regulation of somatic embryogenesis in plant cell cultures is a topic of considerable interest, not only because of its potential applications for micropropagation and genetic engineering in plants but also as a prime example of the process of controlled development and differentiation. Therefore, it is not surprising that a vast amount of literature has accumulated discussing the morphogenetic and biochemical events underlying embryogenic development in cell cultures. The complexity of interaction of various chemical factors within the plant tissue and those that are externally applied, has been stressed in a number of reviews (Steward, 1976; Street, 1977; Ammirato, 1983, a, b, 1984; Sung et al., 1984; Raghavan, 1986).
