Upload NowThe following points highlight the two techniques adopted for genetic modified of tropical fruits. The techniques are: 1. Micro-Propagation 2. Embryo Culture Techniques. 1. Micro-Propagation Technique: Micro grafting, an innovative technique which should be applicable to other tropical and subtropical species, was developed in 1972 for Citrus. Micro grafting of Citrus results in virus-free plants […]
