Formation of multiple or adventive embryos in Epidendrum nocturnum Jacq (Orchidaceae)

Under greenhouse conditions, Epidendrum nocturnum Jacq. plants produce fruits by both self-fertilization and cleistogamy. Although adapted to these reproductive processes the species respond also to cross-pollination. Seeds without embryos and with one embryo are usual but occasionally seeds with two, three or four embryos are produced. Multiple embryos are formed by polyembryony and apomixis. © 1985 Annals of Botany Company.

Sex determination of murine and bovine embryos using cytotoxicity and immunofluorescence assays

Murine and bovine embryos were sexed by using polyclonal and monoclonal anti-H-Y antibodies in cytotoxic and immunofluorescence assays. The specificity of 3 different sources of antibodies are compared. Sexing was accomplished by complement-mediated cytotoxicity or by H-Y antigen detection using a anti-mouse Ig fluorescein conjugate. Cytogenetic ascertainment for correct sex identification yielded a score of about 85% in both species, while the immunofluorescence assay yielded a score of 83%. © 1993.
