  • Title: Somatic Embryogenesis in Crocus sativus L.
    Author: Sevindik B, Mendi YY.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2016; 1359():351-7. PubMed ID: 26619871.
    Abstract:
    Saffron (Crocus sativus L.) is one of the most important species in Crocus genus because of its effective usage. It is not only a very expensive spice, but it has also a big ornamental plant potential. Crocus species are propagated by corm and seed, and male sterility is the most important problem of this species. Hence, somatic embryogenesis can be regarded as a strategic tool for the multiplication of saffron plants. In this chapter, the production of saffron corms via somatic embryogenesis is described.
