Conservation
Propragation has been conducted using in vitro techniques in facilities across the country. This method of conservation is used in parts of the world to preserve plants for as long as possible. In vitro propagation has allowed material
to be kept in in vitro gene banks, and this will expand with
deeper developments in cryopreservation technology.
An increasing number of botanic gardens now have in vitro facilities,
and information on techniques is distributed between these in
addition to cultures.
