Transcriptome Analysis of Embryogenic and Non-Embryogenic Callus of Picea Mongolica.

ABSTRACT: Picea mongolica is a rare tree species in China, which is of great significance in combating desertification and improving the harsh ecological environment. Due to the low rate of natural regeneration, high mortality, and susceptibility to pests and cold springs, Picea mongolica has gradually become extinct. At present, somatic embryogenesis (SE) is the most effective method of micro-proliferation in conifers, but the induction rate of embryogenic callus (EC) is low, and EC is difficult to differentiate from non-embryonic callus (NEC). Therefore, the EC and NEC of Picea mongolica were compared from the morphology, histological, physiological, and transcriptional levels, respectively. Morphological observation showed that the EC was white and transparent filamentous, wh
