In vitro tissue culture: Towards conservation of threatened desiccation sensitive Encephalartos cycads seeds
Approximately 62% of the 355 cycad species in the world are classified as threatened with extinction. The African genus, Encephalartos, has a total of 65 species, approximately 70% of which are threatened. This status emphasizes the need to conserve these species; however, the recalcitrant nature of...
