Overview
A general advanced
course for all master's students in the department, starting with a general
introduction to tissue culture techniques and their historical development and
related terminology with a review of problems, advantages and applications,
establishing and planning laboratories, nutrient media, their components,
types, preparation and sterilization - the effect of nutrient medium components
on reproduction and growth of explants, reproductive systems in farms Histology
- organ formation, somatic embryo formation and its pathways, physiological and
biological changes associated with the formation of somatic embryos, culture of
zygotic embryos - protoplast culture and cellular hybridization, callus
cultivation and production of secondary compounds, Bioreactors and their use in
micropropagation, preservation of genetic assets - phylogenetic variation -
reproductive systems used in genetic engineering - a study of scientific papers
covering these topics. It concludes with various topics: flowering in tissue
cultures - the quality of tissue plants - integration
Intended learning outcomes
