The present invention relates to a method for regenerating damaged plant tissues. The method is based on the use of cellulose, preferably bacterial cellulose (CB), which is applied directly to the damaged area, allowing same to heal rapidly. In this way, the present invention demonstrates the regenerative potential of cellulose, preferably bacterial cellulose, on plant wounds. In a preferred embodiment of the method of the invention, cellulose is combined with silver nanoparticles in order to regenerate tissue, and also to prevent and/or treat bacterial infections in the tissue. |
