Norway spruce materials used in somatic embryogenesis and telomere length studies: Controlled crosses from which the embryogenic tissues (ETs) were derived, and genotypes used to examine embryo production capacity and length of telomeric repeats in ETs of varying age, prior to and following cryopreservation.
