Genetic modification of plants is a highly controversial area of biotechnology. Experiments in plants begin with establishing plant cells in culture. This involves de-differentiating plant cells to form plant “stem cells”. In this experiment, students will establish cell cultures of African Violets from leaves. They will then use plant growth regulators to encourage root growth from the cultured cells, and produce a mature plant.
