Brief Description
Description : | Tuberose, is generally propagated through bulbs. the root-knot nematodes have been reported as the major limiting factors in successful tuberose cultivation. one of the main challenges facing production and marketing of good quality tuberose cut flowers therefore is the lack of clean planting material. micro propagation in addition to being a tool to augment the supply of planting material in a short period of time, can also provide disease free planting material. |
