The property of an undifferentiated cell that has the potential to develop into an entire plant is called totipotency.
Explanation:
- In biology, totipotency can be described as the ability of a cell to differentiate into all other cells types. Hence, totipotent cells are not specialized.
- This concept of totipotency has been used widely in plant biotechnology to develop plant of desired characteristics from an undifferentiated cell in the lab.
- For example, spore and zygote are considered to be totipotent cells.
