Organ culture in plants is very common these days and it is the culturing of organs or plant parts in an artificial media or a culture from isolated medium. Any part of plant can serve as explants in organ culture- like shoot (for shoot tip culture), root (for root tip culture), leaf (for leaf culture), and flower (for anther, ovary, ovule cultures). Organ culture has been shown to be very much reliable in studies of the dependence on growth regulators and other growth factors. It also helps in broadening the horizon for the developments in agriculture and horticulture. Most important types of organ culture for in vitro plant propagation are meristematic culture, shoot tip, nodal culture of separate lateral bud, isolated root, and embryo culture.
