Micro-Propagation of Ornamentals and Tree Species | Biotechnology

Plant propagation is carried out by sexual or asexual mode of life cycles. The asexual or vegetative reproduction produces genetically identical plants. Multiplication of several horticulturally important crops follows vegetative methods. Production of genetically identical plant cultivars by asexual method is called clonal propagation and genetically identical indi­viduals derived from a single individual by asexual mode referred as clone. Contrast [...]

Construction of Genomic Library | Genetics

A genomic library contains all the sequences present in the genome of an organism. In the construction of genomic libraries it is feasible to use vectors that could accommodate large size of inserts. The first step in the construction of genomic library is the isolation of genomic DNA, and entire DNA is subjected to restriction digestion. The fragmented DNA of [...]
