Abstract
The development of cryopreservation has been considerable during the past decade. However, while cryopreservation of most cell suspension cultures can be used routinely without major problems, difficulties still remain when freezing organized and/or macroscopic structures from in vitro cultures (meristems and somatic embryos).
