Why the callus is first transferred to rooting medium in plant tissue culture?

Callus is just a lump of cell/tissue. A plant needs roots to survive. that's why callus is kept in a rooting medium where it grows roots (several saplings as a aingle structure).

Direct and indirect morphogenesis in Plant tissue culture?
Callogenesis is the shoot development in callus, due to low auxin and hign cytokinin concentration in the culturing medium during tissue culture.
What happens when marine protozoan is transferred to a fresh water medium?
marine protozoans transferred to fresh water will
What is L-15 cell culture medium?
It is just a type of a culture medium. The "L" there stands for Lebowitz, presumably the last name of the first person who came up with that culture medium.
What is the most important medium for transmitting a culture?
A nutrient medium is used.
What medium do you culture Vibrio vulnificus in?
TCBS
Why medium is considered to be very important in tissue culture technique?
In tissue culture, the medium also called the sterile jelly is very essential because it provides all the necessary nutrients , hormones , enzyme which is needed for the growth and development of the tissue and helps it to produce many cells which form a shapeless mass called a 'callus' .This then could be transferred to another jelly which helps it to develop roots and another to develop shoot which then could be transplanted to pots or soil which helps it to mature and grow to form new plant . hence medium is considered very important in tissue culture technique.
What is rooting medium?
Usually a sterile mix of vermiculite, pearlite, moss, and steralized soil.
How long do you have from the time you take a plant cutting's until it has to be placed in a medium as in the case of plant propagation?
Depends entirely on the species of plant. Some plants have to be placed in the medium directly after cutting to prevent air bubbles entering the vessels and causing blockages. Others can be left out for a number of days or even weeks before planting as they form a callus layer before rooting - eg. Frangipani (Plumeria species)
What steps are involved in the propagation of plants using tissue culture technologies?
Callus stageTissue is grownin nutrient medium till it forms an unorganised mass called callus.Plantlet stageThe callus is transferred to another medium for growth and differentiation, that forms plantlets.Maturity stageThe plantlets are transplanted into soil or pots where they grow to maturity.

What is energy transferred without a medium?
electromagnetic radiation

What is transferred through a medium?
Disturbances that transfer energy, or waves. Mechanical waves must have a medium to travel.
What factor can cause cells to divide in a culture medium?
Protein signals cause cells to divide in a culture medium.
What is Stuart's medium?
Stewart's medium is a type of culture transport medium (in broth form) used to preserve bacteria until it is cultured. Stewart's medium can be found in specific culture test tubes.
What is the most important medium for transmitting a culture?
A nutrient medium is used.
