Tissue culture techniques can be used for genetic improvement of plants. Some key applications include:
1. Meristem culture which allows production of virus-free plants by cultivating shoot meristems. This eliminates viruses that move through the vascular system.
2. Somaclonal variation which induces genetic variability that can be used for crop improvement traits like disease resistance. Selected variants require extensive field trials due to genetic instability.
3. Mutagenesis uses physical or chemical mutagens to induce desirable mutations and improve traits like disease resistance. However, frequency of desired mutations is low and screening large populations is required.
4. Embryo rescue promotes development of immature embryos, allowing interspecific hybridizations and

A process where an embryo is derived from a single somatic cell or group of somatic cells. Somatic embryos (SEs) are formed from plant cells that are not normally involved in embryo formation.
Embryos formed by somatic embryogenesis are called Embryoids.
The process was discovered for the first time in Daucas carota L. (carrot) by Steward (1958), Reinert (1959).
The genetic variations found in the in vitro cultured cells are collectively referred to as somaclonal variations.
The plants derived from such cells are referred to somaclones. Some authors use the terms calliclones and proto-clones to represent cultures obtained from callus and protoplasts respectively.
The growth of plant cells in vitro is an asexual process involving only mitotic division of cells. Thus, culturing of cells is the method to clone a particular genotype. It is therefore expected that plants arising from a given tissue culture should be the exact copies of the parental plant.
The occurrence of phenotypic variants among the regenerated plants (from tissue cultures) has been known for several years. These variations were earlier dismissed as tissue culture artefacts. The term somaclonal variations was first used by Larkin and Scowcraft (1981) for variations arising due to culture of cells, i.e., variability generated by a tissue culture. This term is now universally accepted.
As described elsewhere the explant used in tissue culture may come from any part of the plant organs or cells. These include leaves, roots, protoplasts, microspores and embryos. Somaclonal variations are reported in all types of plant tissue cultures.
In recent years, the term gametoclonal variations is used for the variations observed in the regenerated plants from gametic cells (e.g., anther cultures). For the plants obtained from protoplast cultures, proto-clonal variations is used.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

6
It is the in vitro aseptic culture of cells,
tissues, organs or whole plant under
controlled nutritional and environmental
conditions.
It produces clones,resultant clones are true-to type
of the selected genotype (unless affected by
mutation during culture)
7. • Tissue culture had its
origins at the beginning
of the 20th century with
the work of Gottleib
Haberlandt
• 1902- proposed the
concept of in vitro cell
culture
• Pallisade cells, pith
cells, stamen hairs and
stomatal guard cells 7
8. Contd...,
• 1926 Went-first plant growth hormone - IAA
• 1941 Overbeek was first to add coconut milk
for cell division in Datura
• 1955 Skoog and Miller discovered kinetin as
cell division hormone.
• 1957 Skoog and Miller gave concept of
hormonal control (auxin: cytokinin) of
organ formation
• 1960 Kanta and Maheshwari developed test
tube fertilization technique
• 1962 Murashige and Skoog developed MS
medium with higher salt concentration.

• 1964 Guha and Maheshwari produced first
haploid plants from pollen grains of Datura
• 1972 Carlson produced first interspecific hybrid
of Nicotiana tabacum by protoplast fusion
• 1978 Melchers et al. carried out somatic
hybridization- Pomato.
• 1987 Klien et al. developed biolistic gene
transfer method for plant transformation.
10. Why do Plant Tissue Culture?
• Fast commercial propagation of new cultivars.
• Do not usually destroy mother plant.
• Continuous supply of young plants throughout the year.
• Virus free plants.
• Easier to export
• Fast selection for crop improvement.
• True to type
10
13. 13
PTC Advantages

1. Meristem culture
Cultivation of axillary or apical shoot
meristems, particularly of shoot apical
meristem
Morel and Martin (1952)
were the first to use
meristem culture to
eradicate viruses from
potatoes
16. Why no virus in meristems
16
• Viruses move through vascular system which in
meristems is absent
• A high metabolite activity in the actively dividing
meristematic cells does not allow virus
replication
• High endogenous auxin level - inhibit virus
multiplication.
17. 17
Case study
Objectives:
1.Virus free plantlet production by meristem culture
2.Evaluate BBTV and BMV resistance in the banana plants under
green house and field conditions

mg/l) and 5 levels of NAA (0.0, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0 and 2.5
mg/l)
• Root formation- four levels of IBA (0, 1, 2 and 3 mg/l)
and 4 levels of NAA (0, 2, 3 and 4 mg/l)
• ELISA for confirmation of virus
20. 2. Somaclonal variations
• Genetic variations in plants that have been produced
by plant tissue culture and can be detected as
genetic or phenotypic traits.

undesirable results
• Selected variants are
random and genetically
unstable
• Require extensive and
extended field trials
• May develop variants with
pleiotropic effects which
are not true.

26. 3. Mutagenesis
• Any fluctuation of the genome of the
organism by physical or chemical mutagen
• To gain one or two of the traits of greatest
interest without excessively changing
important agronomic traits.
• Physical & chemical mutagens.
26
27. • Induction of desirable
mutant alleles, which
may not be present in the
germplasm
• Improves specific
characteristics of a well
adapted high Yielding
variety.
• Mainly useful to clonal
and ornamental crops
• Frequency is very low
• Breeder has to screen
large populations to
select desirable
mutations.
• Undesirable side effects
• Detection of recessive
mutations is almost
impossible in clonal crops
and is difficult in
polyploidy species

time required for development of new cultivar
• Haploids- valuable to detect and fix desirable recessive
traits.
• It accelerates the breeding cycle and allow better
discrimination between genotype.
• F1 production through DH would facilitate the use of
interspecific crosses.
39
