Plant seed embryogenesis as a tool for molecular biology.
Aspects of the embryogenesis of higher plants that are of interest to molecular and cell biologists are reviewed. What is known about the changing population of developmentally regulated mRNA is summarized, and the properties of the gene products that most distinguish embryogenesis, the nutritional storage proteins, are collated.
