Introduction
 What is plant tissue culture?
◦ The growth or regeneration of plant cells,
tissues, organs or whole plants in artificial
medium under aseptic conditions.
 In vitro culture
◦ From Latin- “within the glass” performing an
experiment in a test tube.

Terminology
Explant: A plant organ or piece of tissue used to initiate a culture.
Culture: Growing cells, tissue, plant, organs or whole plant in nutrient
medium under aseptic condition. Eg. cell culture, embryo culture, anther
culture
Aseptic culture : Raising cultures from a tissue or an organ after
freeing it of bacteria, fungi and other microorganism.
Callus: A tissue arsing from disorganized proliferation of cells either in
cultures or in nature. Plural calli
Cell culture: Culture of single cells or small groups of similar cells
Ref:PlantTissue CultureTheory and Practice,a Revised Edition S.S. Bhojwani and M.K Razdan
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Contamination: Unwanted microorganism which may inhibit the
growth of the cells or tissues in culture.
 Subculture: Transfer of tissue or explant into fresh media
Regeneration-: In tissue cultures, a morphogenetic response that results
in the production of new organs, embryo or whole plants from cultured
explant or calli derived from them.
Dedifferentiation: Reversal of organized structures into an
undifferentiated state.
Differentiation : The development of different morphological
characteristics. In tissue culture the term is used to describe the formation
of different cell type, roots, shoots, embryos or any other orgsns in callus
or cell culture.
Ref:PlantTissue CultureTheory and Practice,a Revised Edition S.S. Bhojwani and M.K Razdan
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Micropropagation: Asexual or vegetative propagation of plants in
vitro.
Organogenesis: Differentiation of organs from cultured cells or tissue.
Plantlet: A small rooted shoot or germinated embryo.
Somatic hybridization: The creation of hybrids by fusion of protoplast
derived from genetically different cells.
Totipotency: Potentiality or property of cell to produce a whole
organism.
Transgenic plant: Plants which have been genetically engineered to
modify certain characteristics by introducing one or a few selected genes.

Requirement of PTC
 Appropriate tissue (Explant)
 Equipment and Glasswares
 A suitable growth medium
 Aseptic (sterile) conditions
 Culture room
 Incubation room
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Explant
An explant is a piece of
tissue used to initiate a
tissue culture.
Explant should be disease
free.

Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
pH Meter
- used to check or adjust
the pH of nutrient
medium
- 5.8 pH is prefered for
tissue culture media .
- If pH is alkaline, it is
adjusted by addition of
0.1 N HCl.
- if pHis acidic, it is
adjusted by addition of
1N NaOH.
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM

media sterilization
AUTOCLAVE
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
For cell culture
Orbital Shaker
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
LAMINAR AIR FLOW :
 Used for inoculation purpose.
 It works on the principle of
application of high efficiency
particulate air (HEPA) filters
It creates aseptic condition and positive pressure by blowing
sterile air towards the operator.
Hepa filter is of 0.3 micrometer
size, hence it prevents microorganisms and
dust particles from passing
through, thus creates sterile air and
aspetic conditions.
VERTICAL LAMINAR AIR FLOW
HORIZONTAL LAMIANR AIR FLOW

Types of PlantTissue culture
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Organogenesis
 The production of roots,
shoots or leaves.
 These organs may arise out
of pre-existing meristems or
out of differentiated cells.
 This, like embryogenesis,
may involve a callus
intermediate but often
occurs without callus.
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Somatic Embryogenesis
 The production of
embryos from
somatic or “non-
germ” cells.
 Usually involves a
callus intermediate
stage which can
result in variation
among seedlings
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Globular stage of Somatic Embryos
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Cotyledonary Stage of S.E.
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
CALLUS CULTURE
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Regeneration - The process whereby a part
of a plant can be turned into a whole new plant
sprouting
new shoots
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Hardened plantlets
Dr. K. M. Nitnaware HRM
Importance of plant tissue culture
 Production of improved crop varieties
Disease free and desired propagules
Production of secondary metabolites
Production of salt tolerant, drought tolerant and heat
stress tolerant variety
Biotransformation
Biosynthetic pathway
Haploid production
