Review on tissue Culture of Calla Lily (Zantedeschia spreng.) and the Current Situation

Native to tropical Africa, the Calla lily (Zantedeschia spreng.) is a herbaceous, bulbous and beatiful flower. The calla long flowering period have contributed to its considerable rise in popularity in the global market. Besides problems related to Calla lily commercial exploitation have come to light as market demand for the plant has grown. Zantedeschia was formerly propagated vegetatively through tuber division. Nonetheless, the propagules frequently contain viral and bacterial species that infect the plants. These organisms are particularly prevalent in Erwinia carotovora subsp. and E. chrysanthemi. The most effective method for quickly producing a large number of pathogen-free plants is micropropagation. plant tissue culture is a technique that can be used to generate entire plantlets from a cell, tissue or any other portion of the plant. In this review article, we are going to briefly review the results of research conducted on Calla lily (Zantedeschia spreng.) tissue culture
