Chapter 37.2, Problem 2CC
Summary Introduction
To determine: The way in which commercial growers use plant tissue culture to produce many identical plants.
Introduction: Chemical signals which are transported within the body of a plant are known as plant hormones. Some of the examples of plant hormones are Auxins, cytokinins, gibberellins, ethylene, abscisic acid, and brassinosteroids. Plant tissue culture is a process to produce plant clones artificially with the help of plant growth hormones such as auxins and cytokinins.
