Description

The training course includes a series of theoretical lectures and practical sessions specialized in plant tissue culture. It begins with an introduction to the basics of tissue culture and the components of a tissue culture unit, followed by hands-on preparation of culture media. The course then explores micropropagation techniques and their applications, in addition to theoretical sessions on somatic hybridization and protoplast fusion. Advanced topics such as in-vitro selection and somaclonal variation are also covered, with a strong focus on their practical applications. Furthermore, the course provides an introduction to recombinant DNA technology and hands-on DNA extraction. It concludes with a comprehensive practical evaluation and a final session summarizing the key lessons learned and closing remarks.
