“Give me a living cell of any plant and I will give you a thousand plants of the same type”. Is this only a slogan or is it scientifically possible? Write your comments and justify them.

It is scientifically possible. By application of tissue culture it is possible to achieve propagation of a large number of plants in very short durations. This method of producing thousands of plants through tissue culture is called micro propagation. Each of these plants will be genetically identical to the original plant from which they were grown, i.e., they are somaclones.
