Developmental localization and the role of hydroxyproline rich glycoproteins during somatic embryogenesis of banana (Musaspp. AAA)

Table 1 The intensity evaluation of immunofluorescence labelling with JIM11 and JIM20 antibodies

Developmental stage	Cell types	Antibody
		JIM11	JIM20
NECs	Inner cells	±	++
	Outer cells	+	++
ECs	Inner cells	++++	++++
	Outer cells	++++	++++
Proembryos and globular embryos	Epidermal cells	+++	+++
	Inner cells	+	+
Late embryos	Epidermal cells	+	+
	Subepidermal/cortex cells	+	+
	Cells around procambium	+++	++
	Procambium cells	±	±

NECs: non-embryogenic cells; ECs: embryogenic cells. Increasing intensity was evaluated as: ± (very weak), + (weak), ++ (middle), +++ (strong), ++++ (very strong).
