• A. Micropropagation
• B. Seed germination after gamma-irradiation
• C. Stem or Shoot up culture
• D. Seed germination under aseptic condition

Answer 1

The correct option is A Micropropagation

Tissue culture is the artificial growth of cells in a large amount in laboratory conditions. Micropropagation is one of the techniques of tissue culture in which a large number of desired cells are produced to obtain pathogen free bacteria and also small pieces of shoot meristems are cut and then transferred to culture media to grown, the resultant plants will be free from virus and bacterial infection. The media and surrounding should be sterilized and aseptic conditions should be maintained.
