Transcriptome sequencing analysis of maize embryonic callus during early redifferentiation

Background Maize is one of the primary crops of genetic manipulation, which provides an excellent means of promoting stress resistance and increasing yield. However, the differences in induction and regeneration capacity of embryonic callus (EC) among various genotypes result in genotypic dependence in genetic transformation. Results In this study, embryonic calli of two maize inbred lines with strong redifferentiation capacity and two lines...
