Natural and induced variation in tissue culture

  • Published:
Euphytica Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

This literature review suggests a novel approach to intra-clonal plant improvement which will utilize both the natural and induced variation associated with clonally propagated plants through various in vitro and in vivo procedures. Many plants obtained in this manner will be of single-cell origin and, hence, of pure mutant type avoiding the traditional chimerism phenomena of mutation breeding studies.

While such a system of plant breeding is not intended to replace conventional breeding methods for most crops, it may have special use for the plant breeder who is working with crops which are unique, highly-adapted, or in which the sexual apparatus is disturbed.
