Abstract
Objective:
To study the tissue culture technique of Liriope spicata.
Methods:
The tender stem segments with roots as explants were cultured on various media with different kinds of hormones, a lot of bud clusters were induced and grew into seedlings.
Results:
A great quantity of whole aseptic seedlings can be formed quickly by the tender stem segments on the media.

02:57Plant Tissue Culture
Plant tissue culture is widely used in both primary and applied science. Applications range from plant development studies to functional gene studies, crop improvement, commercial micropropagation, virus elimination, and conservation of rare species.
01:21Cell Culture
Most vertebrate cells grow in vitro attached to a substrate as a monolayer, called adherent cultures. The flasks and plates used to grow cells are chemically treated to facilitate cell attachment. However, a few cell types, such as hematopoietic cells, can grow in a suspension. In contrast to adherent cultures, suspension cultures can grow in non-treated cultureware using magnetic stirrers or spinner flasks to agitate the culture media
