“…In vitro preservation of genetic resources can be carried out through (1) development of a tissue bank, (2) cryopreservation, (3) shoot culture and multiplication, and (4) in vitro culture for minimal plant growth (slow growth culture), and root culture of generative reproducing plants for longterm storage (Panis 2009;Anis and Ahmad, 2016;Chauchan et al 2019). In vitro technology is currently necessary for plant diversity maintenance strategies, especially for species propagated vegetatively (Keller et al 2006;Khalid and Tan 2017;Benelli et al 2022;Phanomchai et al 2022). According to Benson et al (2011), from 28,000 accessions of plants propagated vegetatively, such as bananas, cassava, potatoes, sweet potatoes, and other tubers, 85% of them were collected in vitro with minimal growth and 10% with cryopreservation.…”
