Abstract
The technique of plant tissue culture is used to propagate plants in sterile environments, frequently leading to the production of plant clones. Various plant tissue culture techniques offer benefits over traditional propagation methods, such as the capacity to create exact plant clones - even in the absence of seeds and low-germinating seeds, as well as the creation of genetically altered plants free from disease. Because it is the most promising area of biotechnological tools for today's and tomorrow's agriculture, plant tissue culture has taken the lead in the rapidly evolving field of biological research.
