Somatic embryogenesis


Answers (1)

An artificial method called micropropagation is used to create plants asexually from vegetative plant parts. A somatic cell can become an embryonic stem cell through a process known as somatic embryogenesis. This stem cell has the capacity to develop into an embryo, and subsequently, an entire plant. This procedure is performed in a controlled environment. Other forms of micropropagation include callus culture, where a callus is used to develop a complete plant, and meristem culture, where a meristem is used to create an entire plant.

 

The final answer is A technique of micropropagation is Somatic embryogenesis.
