A Review on Low Cost Methods for In Vitro Micropropagation of Plant Through Tissue Culture Technique

Abstract

Medicinal plants have been the subject of man’s curiosity since the time of human survival. A considerable majority of people of the world’s population still rely on the traditional medicine for their primary health care necessities. Currently demand of herbal medicines has been enhanced; and it is very difficult to fulfill the demand from field plants. Hence, in vitro propagation of plant by tissue culture can be used to fulfill the requirement of medicinal plants. The techniques applied in tissue culture are expensive; hence we try to summarize the data for low cost method for in vitro micropropagation of plant through tissue culture technique. This can help the scholar working in developing of tissue culture methods for in vitro propagation of medicinal plant.
