"Phantom agents" are suspected plant pathogens that have been reported in scientific literature with no real evidence they exist.@Clean_Plant_AR helped develop a long list of phantom agents. Read more at https://t.co/aCEaZgZlzC. @AginArk @ytzanet @ArkansasEPP

[Arkansas Agricultural Experiment Station @ArkAgResearch]

Like updating an email list with defunct addresses, scientists worldwide worked with @Clean_Plant_AR to name more than 120 "phantom agents" that can't be diagnosed for international tissue sample transport. https://t.co/aCEaZgZlzC @AginArk @ytzanet @plantdisease

Plant tissue culture is one of the best way to multiply plants in a compact space, where one single in vitro culture could provide more than 12 in-vitro shoots within months @Clean_Plant_AR @AginArk @ArkansasEPP @UArkResearch @plant_clean #planttissueculture #plantbiotechnology
