Rahul had some good variety of tobacco plants, which were infected by virus. He wants to produce new disease free plants from the old plants. As a student of biology, can you give advice to Rahul for producing virus free plants?

I advice him to do meristem culture because although the plants are infected by virus, the meristem will be free of virus.
