	Plant propagation compositions and methods - Patent 5906941
		The composition is used for culturing plant tissues, to promote somatic embryogenesis, reduce vitrification (hyperhydricity) in cultured tissues, and to enhance acclimation of plants by both reducing the amount of time required for acclimation, and by increasing the survival rate of plants through the acclimation process.
		A plant tissue culture composition of claim 1, wherein the fishery by-product is added in an amount adequate to inhibit vitrification of cultured plant tissues relative to use of the plant tissue culture medium without the fishery by-product.
		Plant tissue culture is the growth, on or in artificial media, of whole plants, plants parts, organs, or undifferentiated tissue.

	How Did Plants Survive the Flood?
		However, plants have adaptive abilities that surpass all other multicellular organisms, and are therefore perhaps the most difficult to completely exterminate of any organism on earth.
		Plants will sacrifice all metabolic reserves to rapidly set seed when the conditions indicate winter or draught is coming.
		Out of a colony of plant tissue, a perfect embryo can be isolated which resulted from the metamorphosis of a single cell through somatic embryogenesis.

	Plant embryogenesis - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The process of embryogenesis may occur naturally in the plant as a result of sexual fertilization or asexual processes, these embryos are called zygotic embryos and develop into seeds, which germinate giving rise to seedlings.
		Plant cells can also be forced to form embryos in plant tissue culture, these embryos are called somatic embryos.
		This process is used in plant tissue culture to generate plants from single cells called protoplasts, or from small pieces of plant tissue.

	Plant Somatic Embryogenesis
		A plant reproduces naturally through the development of zygotic embryos.
		Alternatively, the plant can be derived from a single somatic cell or a group of somatic cells.
		Combined with genetic engineering, micropropagation through somatic embryogenesis provides an efficient means of producing a large number of elite or transgenic plants.

		Plant biotechnology is a multi-billion dollar industry that affects the food we eat, the purity of our water supply, the paper we use, our forests, our health, our economy etc. Plant biotechnology is so dependent on our knowledge of plant developmental biology that the entire industry has been called applied plant development.
		Somatic embryogenesis, the process of making "normal" plant embryos from previous differentiated somatic plant cells, is then used to turn individual transformed somatic cells into entire new (cloned) plants.
		In contrast, in somatic embryogenesis (SE) a plant is produced from a differentiated cell which dedifferentiates and then turns into an embryo and then a plant.

	Title of Invention: Somatic embryogenesis and plant regeneration of cacao
		Typically, this plant will have desirable agronomic traits such as high yield, disease resistance, stand establishment etc. or some unique quality such as unique color, flavor, food quality, etc. For plant regeneration to be effective for cloning, a plant of a known phenotype must be faithfully reproduced as a copy of the original.
		Therefore, an effective plant regeneration method must begin with plant material (explant) of a known genetic constitution and result in the development, from cell culture, of plants which mature and are capable of sexual reproduction.
		Since each plant species and sometimes varieties within a species appears to possess a unique optimal set of media requirements, the successful preparation and regeneration of a new species cannot be necessarily inferred from the successful regimens applied to unrelated plant species.
