meristem culture. (shoot-tip culture) The culture of excised meristems on suitable nutrient media under aseptic conditions. The stem apex is usually used though axillary meristems may also be taken.Often gibberellic acid must be added to the medium to promote normal growth into a plantlet.shoot-tip culture) The culture of excised meristems on suitable nutrient media under aseptic conditions.

The meristem also forms a protective root cap. The cells to the upper left of this image are embryonic protoderm, ground meristem, and procambium. Apical meristems are sites of intense mitotic cell divisions. The new cells produced fuel the growth and development of new tissues. second ring of meristematic tissue forms just below the epidermis in woody plants to produce bark. This is the cork cambium. The cork cambium and vascular cambium contribute to subsequent or secondary growth typically found only in woody plants. Now, roll over the apical meristem on the diagram..
