In the reproductive cycle, the stage after the fertilization of the egg that precedes the development into a fetus.

SE onset depends on a complex network of interactions among plant growth regulators, mainly auxins and cytokinins, during the proembryogenic early stages, and ethylene and gibberellic and abscisic acids later in the development of somatic embryos.

In situ hybridisations were performed on devitellinised embryos still wrapped around the yolk and on embryos with the yolk dissected away.

An organism in the earlier stages of development before it emerges from the egg, or before metamorphosis.
