what is the work of biologist in micropropagation?

Biologists in microprop you say??  Well, it depends.  THere are several stages and a biologist could be responsible for any part of them.  For instance, making the callus culture and ensuring that the proper amount of plant horomones are present, to the actual studying of methods of microprop. Quality control, disease checking, all that jazz. If you want specifics, that's a lot of information but you could look up wikipedia.org, and I am sure they have anice section on microprop.  Good luck!

There are many ways plants can be propagated grafting layering, cuttings, micropropagation, division etc if you wan't know more just ask

SUB-CATEGORIES OF BIOTECHNOLOGY:\n\nRED BIOTECHNOLOGY is biotechnology applied to medical processes. Some examples are the designing of organisms to produce antibiotics, and the engineering of genetic cures to cure diseases through genomic manipulation.\n\nWHITE BIOTECHNOLOGY, also known as GREY BIOTECHNOLOGY, is biotechnology applied to industrial processes. An example is the designing of an organism to produce a useful chemical. White biotechnology tends to consume less in resources than traditional processes when used to produce industrial goods.\n\nGREEN BIOTECHNOLOGY is biotechnology applied to agricultural processes. An example is the designing of an organism to grow under specific environmental conditions or in the presence (or absence) of certain agricultural chemicals. One hope is that green biotechnology might produce more environmentally friendly solutions than traditional industrial agriculture. An example of this is the engineering of a plant to express a pesticide, thereby eliminating the need for external application of pesticides. Whether or not green biotechnology products such as this are ultimately more environmentally friendly is a topic of considerable debate.\n\nBIOINFORMATICS is an interdisciplinary field which addresses biological problems using computational techniques. The field is also often referred to as computational biology. It plays a key role in various areas like functional genomics, structural genomics, and proteomics amongst others, and forms a key component in biotechnology and pharmaceutical sector.\n\nThe term BLUE BIOTECHNOLOGY has also been used to describe the marine and aquatic applications of biotechnology, but its use is relatively rare.

Stepwise-First you identify a gene of interest. Then, usually through years of work, you identify some function of the gene.  One way to identify this is to knock the gene out, a process called, approriately, gene knockout.  Knock out the gene in a cell line, or more interestingly, in an embryonic mouse- Now, if the embryo develops, you examine the animal, the tissue, the cellular funtions, and try to determine what has changed with the gene gone.  You can also overexpress the gene, so that it makes much more gene product, and see what happens then.  Once you have some handle on the function of the gene overall, you can make small mutations in it to determine exactly which part of the resultant protein does what.  Outside of scientific investigation, genetic engineering is used to make more viable or resistance plants (for example, put a gene that confers resistance to high salt, that you took from a plnat that grows in salty conditions, and put it into a strain of rice- now the rice can grow in high salt). It is also used to produce pharmaceuticals, such as antibodies- take a gene for an antibody out of the animal that makes it, put it in a bacteria or yeast, and then make tons of the stuff cheaply.

microbiology is a subject with great potential. Micrbes are being used from everything from "eating up oil" to producing human insulin!\nThough the subject has just too many applications in oil industry, agriculture, pharmacy, chemical industry, biotech etc. etc. perhaps the best applications would be in the pharmacy sector where microbes are  both friends and foes. \n\nOn one hand microbes are used for production of many drugs penicillin, chloromycetin, soframycin, human insulin, botox, many protiens, enzymes and hormones. On the ther hand the harmful ones are carefully studied and screened from the drugs manfactured. So a microbiologist has applications in both R&D, Production and Quality Control aspects.\n\nResearch is also being done in biotech, where microbes are being modified to produce more nitrogen, provide disease resistence, improve vigour  in plants , etc. etc. \n\nBut you must do an M.Sc. then Ph.D.

Biotechnology is technology based on biology, especially when used in agriculture, food science, and medicine. The UN Convention on Biological Diversity has come up with one of many definitions of biotechnology:[1]\n"Biotechnology means any technological application that uses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives thereof, to make or modify products or processes for specific use."\n\n(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biotechnology)\n\nBiotechnologists do a number of different jobs, from gene identification and criminal investigations to agricultural research.  Very interesting and rewarding.

They have the cells encoded with the formula called Gene to produce the plant.

Scientists alter the genetic make-up of the plant.  It might be as simple as turning off a gene by mutating it, or by stimulating a gene the plant already has to become more active, or active at a different time than usual.  Some scientists go as far as inserting genes from totally different organisms, even kingdoms!  An example was the introduction of a gene that codes for an antifreezing protein.  Allows the fish to survive in extremely low temperatures.  Some scientists inserted this into fruits and vegetables to keep them from dying from frost.

Hi!\nI change my field of study from physics to biophysics but still its a great pleasure to solve a problem in physics if you dont mind.\nWish to see your project.\nBye

The Latin words hortus (garden plant) and cultura (culture) together form horticulture, classically defined as the culture or growing of garden plants. Horticulturists work in plant propagation, crop production, plant breeding and genetic engineering, plant biochemistry, plant physiology, and the storage, processing, and transportation of fruits, berries, nuts, vegetables, flowers, trees, shrubs, and turf. They improve crop yield, quality, nutritional value, and resistance to insects, diseases, and environmental stresses. Genetics is also used as a valuable tool in the development of plants that can synthesize chemicals for fighting disease (including cancers).\n\nHorticulture involves five areas of study. These areas are floriculture (includes production and marketing of floral crops), landscape horticulture (includes production, marketing and maintenance of landscape plants), olericulture (includes production and marketing of vegetables), pomology (includes production and marketing of fruits), and postharvest physiology (involves maintaining quality and preventing spoilage of horticultural crops).\n\nHorticulturists can work in industry, government, or educational institutions. They can be cropping systems engineers, wholesale or retail business managers, propagators and tissue culture specialists (fruits, vegetables, ornamentals, and turf), crop inspectors, crop production advisors, extension specialists, plant breeders, research scientists, and of course, teachers.

It the study of biology on the molecular level.  In other words, a microbiologist studys not just organs and tissues, but the molecular makeup of tissues and cell componants.\n\nQuite fascinating stuff really.
