In vitro conservationIn vitro conservation
Conservation of plant germplasm through Conservation of plant germplasm through micropropagation or storage of synseeds, micropropagation or storage of synseeds, embryos, buds, or meristems is known as embryos, buds, or meristems is known as invitro conservationinvitro conservation
Invitropropagation also has arole in the Invitropropagation also has arole in the exsitu management of threatened speicesexsitu management of threatened speices

Uses of invitro conservationUses of invitro conservation
Tissue culture lines that are used to propagate Tissue culture lines that are used to propagate threatened taxa should be preserved for future use.threatened taxa should be preserved for future use.
A number of threatened species of seed plants have A number of threatened species of seed plants have been propagated through tissue culture to provide been propagated through tissue culture to provide materials for ex-situ population, research and materials for ex-situ population, research and reintroduction,reintroduction,
Because invitro propagation can provide only clonal Because invitro propagation can provide only clonal material , material ,
