Abstract

This review aims to provide an in-depth examination of the current state of research on the application of natural compounds in plant tissue culture, highlighting their potential role as an alternative to synthetic plant growth regulators (PGRs) in various micropropagation systems. The use of natural compounds, such as plant extracts, essential oils, and phytohormones, is becoming increasingly popular in plant tissue culture due to their potential to enhance plant growth and development, improve rooting and shooting, and increase the efficiency of tissue culture systems. The use of natural compounds has been explored in various plant species, including medicinal plants, orchids, and crops, with promising results. These findings have significant implications for the development of sustainable and environmentally friendly plant tissue culture systems, and highlight the need for further research into
the optimization of natural compound-based protocols for large-scale commercial applications. The review will also discussed the potential benefits and limitations of using natural compounds in plant tissue culture, including their cost-effectiveness, environmental impact, and potential for genetic modification. Furthermore, this review will Provided an overview of the current challenges and future
directions for the use of natural compounds in plant tissue culture, with the aim of promoting their widespread adoption in the field. By synthesizing the existing knowledge on natural compounds in plant tissue culture, this review aims to provide a valuable resource for researchers, scientists, and practitioners in the field of plant tissue culture, as well as for those interested in the development of
sustainable and environmentally friendly plant production systems.
