Studying of metal ions effects on plant cells and whole plants are still topical. Early somatic embryos (ESEs) of spruce represent the unique plant model system, which can be used to study of various types of environmental stresses including metal ions under well controlled experimental conditions. In the paper nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and electrochemical techniques were employed to investigate the effect of cadmium(II) ions (0, 50, 150, 250, 500 and 1,000 mu M) on early somatic embryos (ESEs) of Norway spruce, clone 2/32. The ESEs were treated with cadmium(II) ions for fourteen days.
