Department of Tissue culture
The technique of plant organ, tissue and cell culture is being used for the mass propagation of temperate nut fruits, forestry plants which are difficult to be propagated through conventional methods. Methods have been standardized for the in vitro propagation of chestnut, oak, strawberry and also chrysanthemum. A rapid single step method for in vitro propagation of cauliflower has been evolved. It was possible to have a clonal cauliflower plant population growing in field within 3 months of culture initiation. It is aimed to extend tissue culture coupled with shoot tip culture method to commercially propagate plants and free them from viruses.
