Which part would be most suitable for raising virus-free plants for micropropagation?

1. Bark
2. Vascular tissue
3. Meristem
4. Node

Correct answer: Meristem

Solution

Meristematic tissue is made of rapidly dividing, undifferentiated cells at shoot and root tips. Viruses usually spread through vascular tissues and often do not invade the meristem, so it is ideal for producing virus-free plants in micropropagation.
