This leads towards the demand of new techniques and varieties in plant productions. Therefore some of the wild species and some other important plants species are in the extinction condition. Germplasm conservation of some of the important species is essential. Cryopreservation is a technique, which is used to preserve the reservoirs of genetic materials of plants by ultra low temperature. During the cryopreservation all biochemical activities significantly reduced and biological deterioration are stopped. The preserved materials can be used after many years. This review details the cryopreservation of plant genetic materials.
