Auxin and Gibberellins Introductions In plant biology, auxins and gibberellins are two hormones that play significant roles in various plant growth processes, including fruit set in tomatoes. Understanding how these hormones interact
Read MoreWhat is Nucellar and nucellar embryogenesis? Nucellar refers to the nucellus, which is the tissue surrounding the embryo sac inside a seed. It is a part of the ovule in plants and
Read MoreIntroduction Nucellar embryogenesis is a fascinating reproductive process that occurs in certain plants, including mango (Mangifera indica L.) cultivars. This mechanism is crucial for plantlet regeneration, especially in both monoembryonic and polyembryonic
Read MoreWhat is Plant Regeneration? Plant regeneration refers to the process through which plants renew or restore themselves after damage or loss. It encompasses various mechanisms, ultimately enabling the survival and continuation of
Read MoreIntroduction to Shoot Tip Grafting Shoot tip grafting (STG) is a powerful technique used to eliminate viruses and diseases from plants. This method not only promotes healthy growth but also preserves valuable
Read MoreWhat is Shoot Tip Grafting (STG) STG involves the precise excision of a small portion of the meristematic tissue (shoot tip) from a virus-infected plant and grafting it onto a healthy rootstock.
Read MoreIntroduction to Plant Tissue Cultures Plant tissue culture (PTC) is used to propagate plants under sterile conditions. This technique allows for the growth of new plants from small pieces of existing plants,
Read MoreIntroduction to MS Medium Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium is a widely recognized nutrient medium used for plant tissue culture. Its carefully formulated composition supports optimal plant growth and development. The MS
Read MoreIntroduction to Ammonium Nitrate in MS Medium Ammonium nitrate (NH₄NO₃) is a critical component of the Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium, playing an important role in plant growth and tissue culture. Its
