Modern Propagation Techniques
Micropropagation /Tissue Culture:
Propagation
Plant propagation is the art and science of increasing
numbers of plants utilizing both sexual and asexual methods. It is not an
exaggeration to say that the continued existence of modern civilization depends
upon plant propagation.

Micropropagation /Tissue Culture:
This method is practiced to
multiply a stock plant at a rapid rate, to produce a large number of progeny plants
using the modern plant culture methods.

Hydroponics:
Hydroponics
is a subset of hydro culture and is a method of growing plants using mineral
nutrient solutions, in water, without soil. Terrestrial plants may be grown
with their roots in the mineral nutrient solution only or in an inert medium,
such as per lite, gravel, mineral wool, expanded clay or coconut husk. Extensive
testing over a period of years has documented the superiority of per lite over
other methods of hydroponic culture. For example,tomato crops hydroponically
grown in per lite have produced yields 7% higher than crops grown in rock wool. In
addition to significantly increased yields, per lite culture is particularly easy
to manage and offers additional benefits.
