The below mentioned article provides a study note on suspension culture. A cell suspension culture consists of cell aggregates dispersed and growing in moving liquid media. It is normally initiated by transferring pieces of undifferentiated and friable calli to a liquid medium agitated by a suitable device (Fig. 17.3A-C). Agitation in the medium helps in two ways, it exerts a [...]
The below mentioned article provides a study note on somatic embryogenesis. Somatic embryogenesis is the process in which a single cell or a small group of cells follow a developmental pathway that leads to reproducible regeneration of non-zygotic embryos which are capable of producing a complete plant. These non-zygotic embryos may originate directly from other organs or parthenogenetic embryos (without [...]
The below mentioned article provides a study note on organogenesis. In plant tissue culture, organogenesis is a process of differentiation by which plant organs like roots, shoots, buds etc. are formed from the unusual points of origin of an organized explants where a preformed meristem is lacking. Plant development through organogenesis is the formation of organs either de novo or [...]
