Autophagy is essential for somatic embryogenesis in citrus through regulating amyloplast degradation and lipid homeostasis.

Abstract excerpt

Autophagy is a conserved degradation pathway that regulates the clearance of paternal substrate at the early embryogenesis stage of animals. However, its mode of action is likely different in plants, which can regenerate through apomixis without fertilisation. Somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a unique plant process widely used for plant propagation and germplasm utilisation. Here, we studied citrus as an example and...
