Tissue Culture

  Tissue culture is a remarkable technique that involves the micro-propagation of selected elite plants. It offers a controlled and precise method of propagating plants by culturing small tissue samples. The process encompasses several essential steps, including initiation, multiplication, shooting, and rooting. Initially, acclimatization takes place in a greenhouse, where the plants are exposed to a controlled environment. Subsequently, secondary hardening occurs in shade houses, where environmental conditions are regulated to a limited extent. This meticulous approach ensures the development of healthy and robust plants that can be readily utilized for various applications, including commercial production, conservation, and research purposes. Tissue culture has revolutionized plant propagation by providing a means to rapidly and efficiently produce large quantities of genetically identical plantlets.
