Question

What are micro-propagation in tissue culture?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Tissue culture is the process of growing cells or tissues in an artificial medium independent from the parent organism. This process is usually facilitated by the use of solid, or liquid growth medium, such as agar medium or broth medium. Tissue is can be done with animal cells as well as plant cells.

Step 2

Micropropagation is a technique in plant tissue culture. This technique is used for the rapid vegetative multiplication of the plants. Micropropagation produces many plants and each plant will be genetically identical to the parent plant from where they are grown.
