Question

Cellular totipotency: It is the capacity of plants to generate
into whole plant from cell/ explant.
a. Name the plant propagation method using this principle.
b. What is explant?
b. Why this is called micropropagation?
c. The plants produced are called somaclones. Justify?

Answer 1

Explanation:

Totipotency is the capability of developing from a small explant into a complete organism.

2. Micropropagation is the process of multiplying the plant material to produce a large number of plants by modern plant tissue culture techniques.

3. Somaclonal is the plant formed by plant tissue culture methods in which the plant is genetically identical to the original plant.

4. Somatic hybrid is produced by the fusion of two different protoplasts of two different plants either by micropropagations or plant tissue culture.

5. Biofortification is the process of breeding to increase the nutrient value of the plants.
