High levels of asparagine synthetase in hypocotyls of pine seedlings suggest a role of the enzyme in re-allocation of seed-stored nitrogen.

abstract：:Nucellar-derived cell cultures of sour orange (Citrus aurantium L.) proliferate as proembryogenic masses. By a change in the carbon source of the medium from sucrose to glycerol they are induced to undergo synchronous embryogenesis forming embryo initials that develop into globular embryos.
