Abstract

Soilless culture also known as water based culture and substrate based culture has immense potential to grow tissue cultured plants in a closed and controlled environment system. This review analyzes the various factors that affect the vegetative growth, reproductive growth, metabolic processes, and gene regulatory functions of tissue cultured plants and the suitability of soilless culture for tissue culture plants. Experiments show that morphological and reproductive abnormalities are mitigated in tissue cultured plants by gene regulation in a closed and controlled environment system. Various factors of a soilless culture influence gene regulation and enhance cellular, molecular, and biochemical processes and compensate constraints in tissue cultured plants in closed and controlled environment conditions. The soilless culture can be utilized to harden and grow tissue culture plants. The tissue cultured plants counter water logging problems and are supplied with nutrients at 7 day intervals in the water based culture. It is necessary to analyze the involvement of regulatory genes in detail in combating challenges of tissue cultured plants in soilless cultures under closed systems. Detailed studies are also required to determine anatomy, genesis, and function of microtuber cells in tissue cultured plants.
