Somaclonal variation occurs when plants regenerated from somatic cells show genetic variation due to tissue culture processes, while gametoclonal variation arises from genetic changes in gametes. Somaclonal variation is more common in tissue culture-based regeneration systems, while gametoclonal variation is a result of natural processes during meiOSis and gamete formation.
