Methodology
How plant tissue culture works
A five-stage process that begins with a single piece of plant tissue and ends with thousands of healthy plants ready to plant.
01/05
Explant
Select high-quality tissue from a source plant — growth tips, young stems, or root tissue — and surface-sterilize it to bring it into sterile lab conditions.
02/05
Initiation
Transfer the explant onto a nutrient-rich culture medium tuned for the species. The tissue responds, recovers, and enters the next phase.
03/05
Multiplication
The plant divides again and again, until a single explant becomes tens, hundreds, and eventually thousands of plantlets — all genetically identical.
04/05
Rooting
Young plantlets move to a medium that induces root formation. At this stage the plants become biologically self-sufficient.
05/05
Acclimatization
Transition from the lab to a normal environment — greenhouse, soil medium, controlled humidity — until the plants are fully ready for field planting.
