tobaco plant formation on callus

diffrent new plant formation by plant tissue culture technique.

AGRICULTURE RELATED TOPICS

plant tisue culture.
it is a technique by which we can produce a new plants of the specific characteristics by trans fering the specific or disirable gene/genes.
in plant tissue culture a single /small part of the plant is used for the production of new plant.
this small oart of the plant which are used for the plant tissue culture is called as aex plant.
the choice of the ex plant is very important, commanly we are using a meristematic end of the plant like stem tip/root tip/growing part of the plant.this part of the plant produce a growth regulator like auxin&cytokinins.this is also have a high rate of cell divisions.
high concentration of the auxin is resonsible for root formation.while
high concentration of the cytokinin is responsible for the shoot formation.
so the concentration of the growth regulator is also responsible for the growth of the plant.

there are some techniques by which we can produced a new plant by plant tissue culture.

equal amount of the auxin & cytokinin is produced unorganised cell of mass is called as callus.

Applications of the plant tisue culture is,

1.for getting desirable character of a plant.

2.for getting pathogen free plants.

3.to get crop around here.

4.it can be used for those plant which donot reproduce sexually.

5.for obtaining secondary metabolites or principle active components through callusing.
