ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides manufactured seeds comprising a unit of a totipotent plant tissue and methods related to their production and use. The totipotent plant tissue is preferably disposed relative to a hydrated gel, preferably an oxygenated hydrated gel, so that liquids can be transfered from the gel to the embryo. It is also preferable that the shoot of the germinating embryo is enclosed in a shoot restraint that is resistant to penetration by the growing shoot and that the totipotent plant tissue, together with the gel and/or restraint, be at least partially surrounded by a protective seed coat. The manufactured seed can be stored for long periods of time after dehydration and/or freezing.
