Strategies for Enhancement in Food Production

Solution:

Micropropagation is the latest method of obtaining a larger number of plantlets from plant tissue culture. It is called micropropagation because of the minute size of the propagules. It involves repeated subculture of the explant (tissue, organ) by changing the medium so as to form a large number of plantlets from that single explant.
