Solution
The correct option is D Tissue culture
- A new banana plant can be produced by tissue culture.
- The growth of tissues or cells separate from the organisms is called tissue culture.
- This is facilitated in a liquid, semi-solid or solid growth medium, such as broth or agar.
- Banana is parthenocarpic (fruits formed without fertilization of ovules) or seedless fruits.
- They grow from a bulb or rhizome and takes around 9 to 12 months from sowing a banana bulb to harvesting the fruit.
- Banana trees can easily adapt to tissue culture technology in labs.
