Impacts of Rapid Desiccation on Oxidative Status, Ultrastructure and Physiological Functions of <i>Syzygium maire</i> (Myrtaceae) Zygotic Embryos in Preparation for Cryopreservation

Impacts of Rapid Desiccation on Oxidative Status, Ultrastructure and Physiological Functions of <i>Syzygium maire</i> (Myrtaceae) Zygotic Embryos in Preparation for Cryopreservation

<i>Syzygium maire</i> is a highly threatened Myrtaceae tree species endemic to New Zealand. Due to its recalcitrant seed storage behaviour, cryopreservation is the only viable long-term ex situ conservation option for this species. This study investigated viability, oxidative stress, the...
