Somatic embryogenesis is an artificial process in which a plant or embryo is derived from a single somatic cell. Somatic embryos are formed from plant cells that are not normally involved in the development of embryos, i.e. ordinary plant tissue. No endosperm or seed coat is formed around a somatic embryo.

Answer 2

Answer:

The process of fertilization triggers the formation of an embryo and this mechanistic process is called embryogenesis.  

However, do you know fertilization is not the only process of embryo development?

Yes, it’s true! You may have heard of the phenomenon of pathogenesis, which occurs in lower plants. Parthenogenesis is defined as the growth and development of an embryo without fertilization of the female gamete.

Furthermore, in nature, it is observed that tissues that are part of the embryo sac, or those that surround it, can also develop into an embryo. However, particular environmental conditions, which exist inside the embryo, will be required for the process. This idea led to the concept of somatic embryogenesis.

This article will pose a brief description of somatic embryogenesis, the process involved, its application, and existing examples. So, this is a layout of the whole story and process of somatic embryogenesis.
