 Introduction
•  What is Plant Tissue Culture ?

o Practice used to propagate plants under sterile

conditions, often clones of a plant.
o Tissue culture is a technology used for mass
propagation of elite and high yielding mother plant
which gives disease free, uniform, genetically pure and
highly potential plants in large scale in shortest period
of time
Tissue Culture Products
•  Fruit Crops: Banana, G-9, (Musa special) Robusta,
Red Banana, Hill Banana, Elakki, Nendren,
Malbhog (From Assam), Williams, Fig,Strawberry.
•  Ornamental Plants: Gerbera, Anthuriums, Orchids,
Syngonium.
•  Spice Plants: Ginger, Turmeric, Vanilla, Planifolia
•  Medicinal Plants: Aloebarbadensis, Stevia, Alpinia
•  Commercial Crops: Sugarcane, Potato, Neem,
Golden Bamboo
•  Organic Manures
 Advantages & Benefits

1.  Profitable oriental Business

2.  Better establishment in the field due to
accelerated growth and well development root
system for better adsorption.
3.  Best quality plants, uniform healthy plants.
4.  High yield in short term.
5.  Identical and true to the type of mother plant
6.  Availability of plants through out the year.
7.  Enervating and high returns
8.  Pest and disease free plants.
9.  Early maturity of crop.
 Bio Technology

•  Provides a potential to produce

new improved safer and less
expensive products and
processes.
•  Immediate application would
be tissue culture for the fast
multiplication of superior
clones of plants.
