ABSTRACT:
Synthetic seeds are produced by encapsulating asexual plant embryos with a nontoxic, biocompatible, water-soluble coating material. The encapsulation is effected by mixing asexual embryos with a synthetic coating material, dispensing such mixture as droplets onto a sterile surface, and drying such droplets to constant weight at room temperature to form detachable wafers consisting of one or more asexual embryos embedded in the synthetic coating material.
