Cryopreservation of plant materials is the storage in liquid nitrogen (LN) in such a way, that viability is maintained and regeneration is obtained after rewarming. In this study, cryopreservation of date palm somatic embryos was examined through dehydration by air drying (20, 40, 60 and 80 minutes) or osmotic dehydration caused by sucrose (0.5, 1.0 and 1.5 M). After two months of cryostorage, sur...
