Q

Methods of propagation

A

Organized–> Organ culture, embryo culture
Unorganized –> callus culture, cell culture in suspension
protoplasts.

17
Q

Tissue hyperhydricity

A

Excessive hydration
low lignification
impaired stomatal function
reduced mechanical strength

18
Q

Phenolization

A

Blackening and browning of callus pr explants shortly after isolation
Poor shoot development

19
Q

Albinism

A

Partial or complete loss of chlorophyll pigments
incomplete differentiation of chloroplast membranes
reduction to complete loss of photosynthesis
