INTRODUCTION The complete set of genetic material of any plant species are define to its germplasm. Germplasm provided the genetic material of any species witch uses for desire purposes to improving plant varieties. Conventionally germplasm stored as seed form at ambient temperature. but many plants produced very short life seeds. 3 www.wahtisthebiotechnology.com

TECHNIQUES Freeze preservation Slow growth culture Desiccated somatic embryos/ artificial seeds DNA clones 4 www.wahtisthebiotechnology.com

ADVANTAGES Require very small space. Storage over long period. Storage free from disease and insects or pathogens. 5 www.wahtisthebiotechnology.com

DISADVANTAGES Greater skill demand to handling conservation process. Even the genetic material may become damage due to very low temperature. Even shoot tip derived plants may shows genetically instability. 6 www.wahtisthebiotechnology.com
