ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides methods for producing cotyledonary pine embryos. The methods of the invention each include the step of culturing embryogenic pine tissue in, or on, a medium comprising a disaccharide and glucose to yield cotyledonary pine embryos, wherein the disaccharide and glucose are each present in the medium at a concentration of less than 3 percent. The present invention also provides cotyledonary pine embryos prepared by a method of the invention.
