Plant tissue culture and its research advances and application in the forage plants

Abstract: This study reviewed the factors affecting plant tissue culture, main problems among plant tissue culture (e.g., as browning, pollution and vitrification) and the solutions for solving these problems, emphasizing on the application and research advances of rapid propagation of clones, genetic transformation, anther culture and haploid breeding, somatic mutagenesis and mutant screening, and secondary substance production in the forage plants.
