Plant Biotechnology Laboratory

About | English

• Plant tissue culture applications
•  
• It aims to produce new tissues, plants or plant products (such as metabolites) from plant partssuch as a whole plant, cells (meristematic cells, suspension or callus cells), tissues (variousplant parts = explants) or organs (apical meristem, root, etc.) under aseptic conditions.
•  
• • Rapid clonal propagation of plants

• • Propagation of plants that are not easily propagated by traditional methods
• • Obtaining  pathogen free plant

• • Plant breeding studies
• • Somaclonal variations
• • Obtaining haploid plants
• • Conservation of plant genetic resources
• • Production of plant secondary metabolites
•  
• Molecular Plant population genetics applications
•  
• Population genetics studies are carried out using molecular markers in different plant taxa ordifferent populations of the same taxon.
• • Determination of the genetic structure of populations
• • Determination of intra-population genetic diversity and the degree of differentiation between populations
• • Evaluation of microevolutionary processes affecting gene pools
• • Conservation of gene resources
