**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Question**: The question asks for the technique used to obtain a large number of plantlets through tissue culture methods. 2. **Identifying Key Terms**: The key terms here are "large number of plantlets" and "tissue culture method". 3. **Reviewing Options**: The options provided are: - Organ culture - Micropropagation - Macropropagation - Plantlet culture 4. **Analyzing Each Option**: - **Organ Culture**: This involves culturing whole organs or tissues but does not specifically refer to the mass production of plantlets. - **Micropropagation**: This is a specific tissue culture technique that allows for the rapid multiplication of plants, producing many plantlets from a small amount of plant tissue (explant). - **Macropropagation**: This generally refers to traditional methods of propagation that involve larger plant parts and is not a tissue culture method. - **Plantlet Culture**: This term is not commonly used in scientific literature to describe a specific technique. 5. **Conclusion**: Based on the analysis, the correct answer is **Micropropagation**. This technique allows for the generation of a large number of plantlets from a small piece of plant tissue through tissue culture methods. **Final Answer**: Micropropagation ---
