Somatic embryogenesis
Embryo rescue
Somatic hybridization
None of the above
Somatic embryogenesis is the technique of raising somatic embryos in vitro by culturing somatic cells. The embryos derived from somatic cells are called somatic embryos. Embryo rescue is the technique of embryo development in vitro when the embryos are likely to get abort early. Somatic hybridization is the production of hybrid plants through the fusion of protoplasts of two different plant species or varieties. Since micropropagation is the clonal propagation using tissue culture, a technique of micropropagation is somatic embryogenesis in which somatic embryos are raised by culturing of somatic cells. So, the correct answer is 'Somatic embryogenesis'.
