What is plant production?
Plant production is the multiplication and/ or propagation of more plants by either sexual (seed) or asexual propagation methods (cuttings). Sexual production involves the sowing of seeds which results in most new seedling being unique in genetic make up (unless you are using F1 generation seed). Asexual production involves taking cuttings from a desirable plant and encouraging them to form roots, thus new plants. The offspring are genetically identical to the parent plant. This includes tissue culture production.
If a plant can be grown from a cutting of its parent what type of reproduction does this represent?
It is an example of asexual reproduction. A bit of one plant is taken and then grown. The new plant is genetically identical to the original
Is micro propagation is method of tissue culture?
yes micropropagation is the method of tissue culture in which we produce high quality plants and in bulk amount i.e. clones.
Advantages of primary cell culture?
There are several advantages of primary cell culture. A main advantage is that cells can be studies in vitro, outside of their regular environment.
What are the advantages of protoplast culture?
used for somatic hybridization. Also useful in direct DNA transfer.
Recent technologies in asexual plant reproduction?
Tissue culture or micro-propagation
What are the types of crop propagation?
plant propagation means producing same type of plant by different type 1. propagation by seed 2. vegetative propagation Bud sprout 3. Grafting 4. Budding 5. Layering 6. Tissue culture
What type of reproduction has occurred when one organism produces genetically identical offspring?
Asexual Reproduction Asexual reproduction is ONE parent giving rise to offspring with identical genome(s) as the parent Common Types of Asexual Reproduction: Fission (Mitosis in somatic cells) Budding (In Yeast, Hydra) Vegetative Propagation (aka Vegetative Reproduction) (Clonal colonies in trees) Fragmentation (In Fungi) BUT IF THE OFFSPRING HAVE THE SAME GENOME AS EACH OTHER BUT NOT THE SAME AS THE PARENT, then the offspring most likely started as one, but split, for example identical twins
What is micro propagation?
tissue culture
Benefits of doing plant tissue culture?
virus free propagation good propagation rate high level of genetic uniformity
What is grafting and tissue culture?
A method of asexual propagation used by commercial growers to produce clones of a particular plant in large quantities. Meristem cells are grown in nutrient solutions in laboratory flasks until they have recognizable roots and leaves. They are then transplanted into a suitable potting medium

What are the contribution of Japanese to the Filipino culture?
Japanese culture has influenced Filipino cuisine, language, and art. The introduction of dishes like tempura and ramen has enriched Filipino food culture. Additionally, Japanese words are incorporated into Filipino vocabulary, and art forms such as manga and anime are popular among Filipino youth.
Artificial way of growing new plants?
Artificial Propagation of Plants Plants normally reproduce through seeds, spores or reproductive growths such as rhizomes or tubers. However, artificial propagation may present a number of advantages under certain circumstances. Cutting Grafting Marcotting/ Air layering Budding Tissue culture
