Plant tissue engineering involves growing plant cells, tissues, or organs in controlled laboratory conditions for research or agricultural purposes. This technique enables the development of disease-free, high-yielding plant varieties. Applications include micropropagation for mass production of elite plants and genetic transformation for improved traits like pest resistance. Tissue engineering also aids in conserving rare or endangered plant species. By combining traditional knowledge with advanced technology, plant tissue engineering ensures the availability of superior plants, contributing to sustainable and efficient farming practices.
