  • Title: Plant Micropropagation and Temporary Immersion Systems.
    Author: Méndez-Hernández HA, Loyola-Vargas VM.
    Journal: Methods Mol Biol; 2024; 2827():35-50. PubMed ID: 38985261.
    Abstract:
    Temporary immersion systems (TIS) have been widely recognized as a promising technology for micropropagation of various plant species. The TIS provides a suitable environment for culture and allows intermittent contact of the explant with the culture medium at different immersion frequencies and aeration of the culture in each cycle. The frequency or immersion is one of the most critical parameters for the efficiency of these systems. The design, media volume, and container capacity substantially improve cultivation efficiency. Different TIS have been developed and successfully applied to micropropagation in various in vitro systems, such as sprout proliferation, microcuttings, and somatic embryos. TIS increases multiplication and conversion rates to plants and a better response during the ex vitro acclimatization phase. This article covers the use of different immersion systems and their applications in plant biotechnology, particularly in plant tissue culture, as well as its use in the massive propagation of plants of agroeconomic interest.
