Clonal/Vegetatively Propagated Plant Protocols

NLGRP scientists develop, implement, and publish cryopreservation methods for a wide range of clonally propagated crops. In addition, some resources relating to clonal cryopreservation and in vitro propagation are available on our website.

Some protocols have been published in our Training in Plant Genetic Resources: Cryopreservation of Clonal Propagules ebook, which is available on the GRIN-U website.

Protocols for currently cryopreserved clonally propagated germplasm may be found below.
