1 What's the difference between plant tissue culture and traditional planting?

The main differences between plant tissue culture and traditional planting are growth cycle, reproduction multiple, insect resistance, production cost and growth environment.

1. growth cycle: the growth cycle of tissue culture seedlings is relatively short, and seedlings can be propagated in large quantities in a short time. However, the traditional planting method has a long growth cycle, such as the production of poplar seedlings, and tissue culture seedlings have obvious advantages in propagation speed.

2. Multiplication: The multiplication of tissue culture seedlings is high, and a large number of seedlings can be propagated in a short time. In contrast, the reproductive ability of traditional planting methods is relatively poor, and it takes a long time to complete.

3. Resistance to pests and diseases: In the production process, plant tissue culture can effectively control pests and diseases, so that seedlings have stronger resistance to pests and diseases. In contrast, plants planted in the traditional way may need drug control, and their resistance is not as good as that of seedlings cultured in tissue.

4. Production cost: The production cost of plant tissue culture is relatively high, and corresponding equipment, technology and materials need to be used. However, by selectively controlling the reproduction multiple, the seedlings can form standardized and neat seedling types in the early stage. However, the production cost of traditional planting methods is relatively low, but the molding cycle is long, so it is difficult to achieve high-quality and efficient seedling production.

5. Growing environment: The plants in tissue culture are planted in a controlled environment, usually a sterile environment, so the growing environment is relatively simple. However, plants with traditional planting methods need to grow in the natural environment, which may be affected by factors such as seasons and climate.

To sum up, plant tissue culture is obviously superior to traditional planting methods in many aspects, but in practical application, we need to consider the problems of high growth environment requirements and relatively high cost.
