Abstract:
Somatic embryogenesis was observed in callus initiated from tendril explants of Vitis vinifera L. cvs. Thompson, Sonaka and Tas-e-Ganesh on Emershad and Ramming medium supplemented with 1 µM 6-benzylaminopurine. Low-frequency conversion to shoots was obtained in the third and fourth subculture on the same medium. Emerging shoots subsequently formed complete plantlets on liquid rooting medium containing 1 µM indole-3-acetic acid. The possible use of tendrils as a novel explant for somatic embryogenesis in grape is discussed.

Somatic Spinal Reflexes
One of the most well-known somatic spinal reflexes is the stretch reflex, which is activated by the sudden stretching of a muscle. This reflex involves the activation of specialized sensory receptors called muscle spindles, which are located in the muscle tissue and detect changes in the length and speed of muscle contractions. When a muscle is suddenly...
Overview of Somatic Sensory Pathways
The somatosensory system is divided into three main pathways: the dorsal (or posterior) column-medial lemniscus, spinothalamic (or anterolateral), and spinocerebellar pathways.
The dorsal...

Self-Inductance
Consider a circuit connected to an AC source. As the current varies with time, the magnetic flux through the circuit correspondingly changes. Faraday's law tells us that an emf would...
