Is there any relationship between dedifferentiation and the higher degree of success achieved in plant tissue culture experiments?

Answers (1)

We know that cells of meristematic tissue undergo differentiation and lose their capability to divide in order to form a permanent tissue. But plants have this special ability to convert permanent tissue into meristematic tissue if the need arises. This phenomenon is called dedifferentiation. Because of their ability to undergo dedifferentiation, many plant tissue can once again undergo cell division to produce new parts. So, a higher degree of success is achieved in plant tissue experiments because of this ability of plant tissues.
