EGG TO SEEDLING. “Embryogenesis effects the transition from the fertilized egg to the new multicellular generation, the seedling, which displays the basic body plan and organization of the plant.” https://lnkd.in/g8uRjQh View in LinkedIn

BODY PLAN. “Embryogenesis is a critical stage of the sporophytic life cycle during which the basic body plan of the plant is established.” https://lnkd.in/gNvKWa8 View in LinkedIn

LATER ORGAN ELABORATION. “During postembryonic development, the two primary meristems give rise to the elaborate structures of the adult plant.” https://lnkd.in/g8uRjQh View in LinkedIn

CRITICAL DIFFERENCE. “All organisms pass through a series of distinct developmental phases during their growth. In higher animals, each phase represents a different episode in the life of a single organism. In higher plants, on the other hand, these developmental phases are episodes in the life of a part of an organism, the shoot apex.” https://lnkd.in/gX3MGs5 View in LinkedIn

“THE SHOOT APEX of higher plants passes through three more or less distinct phases during its postembryonic development: a juvenile vegetative phase, an adult vegetative phase, and a reproductive phase.” http://www.jstor.org/stable/pdf/2878230.pdf?seq=1#page_scan_tab_contents View in LinkedIn

OF LEAVES AND FLOWERS. “In plants, the juvenile and adult phases of vegetative development can be distinguished by leaf morphology, and the reproductive phase of development can be distinguished by the production of flowers.” https://lnkd.in/gsVFbSB View in LinkedIn

EPIGENETIC INFLUENCES. “Plant growth is characterised both by continued growth and organogenesis throughout development, as well as by environmental influences on the rate and pattern of these processes.” https://lnkd.in/gE3JUKT View in LinkedIn

MERISTEMS. “The primary shoot and root apical meristems, established during embryogenesis, play crucial roles in post-embryonic development by self-renewing and producing new organs.” https://lnkd.in/gvWsvGv View in LinkedIn

PLANT STEM CELLS. “In plants, postembryonic development is organized by meristems, which both self-renew and produce daughter cells that differentiate and give rise to different organ structures.” https://lnkd.in/gVEbgeX View in LinkedIn

LIFELONG. “Organogenesis is a postembryonic process that occurs in a continuous manner throughout the entire lifespan.” https://lnkd.in/gVEbgeX View in LinkedIn
