Plant callus culture is a specialized tissue culture propagation technique in which undifferentiated plant cells—known as callus—are produced from a small piece of plant tissue under sterile laboratory conditions. This method serves as a critical foundation in advanced horticulture and plant biotechnology. Plant callus culture is frequently used as a preparatory step for micropropagation, genetic modification, or the production of secondary metabolites for medical and cosmetic applications. The approach of Greenhouse Plants opens the door to innovative, large-scale plant production with precise genetic control.

​What Does the Plant Callus Culture Process Look Like?

The plant callus culture process begins with the selection of an explant, which may be a leaf, stem, root, or meristem from a healthy mother plant. The explant is then carefully sterilized to eliminate bacteria, fungi, or viruses. Once clean, the tissue is placed on a growth medium enriched with plant growth regulators (primarily auxins and cytokinins) to stimulate callus formation. Under controlled light and temperature conditions, the callus develops into a compact mass of unorganized cells. From there, depending on the objective, the callus can be induced to regenerate into a complete plant through organogenesis (formation of shoots and roots) or embryogenesis (formation of plant embryos).

​What Are the Benefits of Plant Callus Culture?

It enables mass production of plants through micropropagation and provides a platform for genetic modification and plant breeding programs. Because the tissue is grown in sterile environments, it offers disease-free starting material, ideal for commercial propagation. Callus culture also allows for genetic storage in plant gene banks and plays a vital role in producing valuable secondary metabolites for pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.
