Question

Arrange the following basal media used in tissue culture based on its salt strength as Low $<$ Medium $<$ High

• A. MS Medium $<$ Gamborg's Medium $<$ Knop's Medium
• B. Gamborg's Medium $<$ MS Medium $<$ Knop's Medium
• C. MS Medium $<$ Knop's Medium $>$ Gamborg's Medium
• D. Knop's Medium $<$ Gamborg's Medium $<$ MS Medium

Hint:

MS Medium is renowned for its very high salt concentration (especially nitrogen sources), while Knop's is a historic, dilute formulation. Remembering these two extremes helps you easily identify the correct sequence.

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D
