  •  Plant Tissue Culture is a technique of growing cells, tissues or organs in sterilized nutrient media under controlled aseptic conditions for the production of desirable planting material.
  • The technique enables production of plants in a small laboratory space round the year, independent of the season and within a short span of time.
  •  The technique of plant tissue culture has been widely applied for large-scale production of quality rich planting material like medicinal, horticultural and ornamental plants.
  • It also helps in conserving many threatened and endangered plant species of extreme geographical locations.

CAREER GROWTH AND OPPORTUNITIES

  • A large number of tissue culture based industries have been engaged in commercial production of selected plant species in India and abroad. There is a huge demand for trained manpower in this sector.
  • The course being offered will train manpower suited to the needs of the industry so that the trained personnel become employable.
