Inheritance and expression of capacity for induction of somatic embryogenesis in vitro in ontogenesis of sweet bell red pepper plants

The authors estimate the expression and the character of inheritance of capacity for somatic embryogenesis in vitro in 35 different genotypes of sweet bell red pepper on different ontogenesis stages. The mechanisms of genic regulation for induction of formation of somatic embryos were considered. The necessity of genetic control for formation of somatic embryoids with the purpose of prediction of regeneration capacity of certain genotypes, optimization of nutrient media and development of methods for control of determinant's expression was shown.
