|
\begin{longenum}
|
|
\item To learn methods of plant material sterilization.
|
|
\item To gain experience in the establishment and maintenance of sterile cultures of seedlings and plants.
|
|
\item To establish sterile cultures of \textit{Arabidopsis thaliana} and \textit{Nicotiana sp.} as explant sources for future practicals.

\section*{Introduction}
|
|
\begin{longenum}
|
|
\item Sterile \textit{in vitro} plant cultures are recommended as sources of explants to avoid repeated sterilization of plant material \cite{George2008}.
|
|
\item When seedling fragments are used as explants, seeds can be sterilized and germinated \textit{in vitro}, providing axenic seedling cultures.
|
|
\item For explants taken from mature plant tissues, donor plants are typically not maintained in sterile culture, necessitating surface sterilization of the explant material \cite{Cassells2012}.
|
|
\item An exception includes species from the \textit{Solanaceae} family (e.g., tomato, tobacco), which are easily maintained in \textit{in vitro} cultures through propagation by cuttings.
|
|
\item These cuttings are grown on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium \cite{Murashige1962}, commonly supplemented with 1\% sucrose (MS10).
|
|
\item Plants from germinated \textit{in vitro} seeds of the \textit{Solanaceae} family can be propagated by cuttings, providing a continuous source of sterile explant material.
