Taxonomy: Technique Branch / Method. Workflows sit above the mechanism and technique branches rather than replacing them.
Summary
Light and electron microscopy have been widely used in confirming the bipolarity of somatic embryos during somatic embryogenesis.
Usefulness & Problems
Why this is useful
Light microscopy is described as a microscopy modality used in plant tissue culture systems to examine growth, development, and embryo bipolarity. The review frames it as a core visualization tool for anatomical and histological assessment.; confirming bipolarity of somatic embryos; providing anatomical, structural, and histological evidence in plant tissue culture

Problem solved
It helps reveal structural evidence for somatic embryo bipolarity and in vitro-induced physiological disorders. This makes otherwise hard-to-see developmental features observable.; supports visualization-based assessment of embryo structure and developmental abnormalities in vitro

It requires in vitro plant culture material prepared for microscopic observation. The abstract supports use in histological and structural examination but does not provide protocol details.; requires plant tissue culture samples suitable for microscopy-based anatomical or histological examination
The abstract does not support claims that light microscopy alone provides molecular mechanism or functional perturbation readouts. It is presented mainly as an observational and localization-supporting tool.; the abstract does not specify which plant systems, sample preparation methods, or resolution limits apply
