Abstract

The production of plants through seeds is time consuming and there are several crop plants that are incapable to produce seed. Plant tissue culture aids in the speedy production of plantlets and also supports to produce seedless plants directly through plant cells, tissues or other plant parts. Plant tissue culture leads to the fast production of high-quality, disease-free plants, which is only imaginable by micropropagation. Plants can be produced around the year, regardless of period and climate. Anther, pollen or microspore cultures leads to the production of haploid plants. Usage of callus, ovule and embryo rescue techniques has made wide hybridization effective; as a consequence, viable plantlets acquired from wide crosses. Plant tissue culture has commenced as the most capable area of biotechnological techniques for present and future agriculture. Its concealments a comprehensive area from production of disease-free plants, production of pharmaceutically important compounds: secondary metabolites, micropropagation of horticultural, ornamental, medicinal and forest trees etc.; the production of haploids and triploids, genetic transformation and enhancement in nutritional value of crop plants and developing resistance against various biotic and abiotic stresses. Nevertheless, plant tissue culture technique is an expensive technology compared to traditional methods. It necessitates sophisticated laboratories and skilled-person hence, it is essential to diminish price by espousing appropriate events and better application of resources and improved process competence. Plant tissue culture efficaciously applied in plant breeding for the speedy production of improved crop plants and become an integral part of plant breeding. The loss of germplasm is a very serious problem when the germplasm is deposited in field gene banks. In vitro storage of germplasm through plant tissue culture and cryopreservation resolves the problem of harm of genetic resources in field gene banks. As a result, the future generations will be able to use genetic resources for their research work to further improvement in crop plants. Cell culture has an excessive role in the future as it is related with genetic transformation of the plants, which facilitates the production of transgenic plants.
