    Question

    Micropropagation is preferred in which fruit plant over conventional propagation owing to faster multiplication and disease-free plants?

    A.

    Banana

    B.

    Grape

    C.

    Apple

    D.

    Pear

    Correct option is A


    • Micropropagation is a tissue culture technique used to produce large numbers of genetically identical and disease-free plants in a short period.
    • It is especially important for vegetatively propagated crops that do not produce good seeds, such as banana, which is sterile and normally propagated by suckers.
    • Using micropropagation, thousands of banana plantlets can be produced from a single explant, ensuring fast multiplication and uniform, disease-free planting material.
