Detailed explanation-1: -Micropropagation is a method of plant propagation using extremely small pieces of plant tissue taken from a carefully chosen and prepared mother plant, and growing these under laboratory conditions to produce new plants. It is widely used in commercial horticulture.
Detailed explanation-2: -Using tissue culture, sometimes called micropropagation, tiny fragments of plants are treated with plant hormones in a sterile growing medium. The hormones stimulate the growth of a callus, from which a new seedling can grow. This method is used to produce large numbers of identical seedlings.
Detailed explanation-3: -Micropropagation is also called Tissue culture. Plant tissue culture is a collection of techniques used to maintain or grow plant cells, tissues or organs under sterile conditions on a nutrient culture medium of known composition. Tissue culture is a type of asexual reproduction.
