Write any four benefits of Micro-propogation |
|
Answer» Ans :- 1. Requires relatively small space for growing.2. Pathogen free plants can be raised and maintained economically.3.Small size of propagules and their ability to proliferate in the soil free environment facilitate their storage on a large scale.4. Stocks of germplasm can be stored and maintained for many years. Micropropagation has a number of advantages over traditional plant propagation techniques: The main advantage of micropropagation is the production of many plants that are clones of each other. Micropropagation can be used to produce disease-free plants. It can have an extraordinarily highfecundityrate, producing thousands ofpropaguleswhile conventional techniques might only produce a fraction of this number. It is the only viable method of regeneratinggenetically modifiedcells or cells afterprotoplastfusion. |
