In this video course, you will learn about Vegetative Propagation from Reproduction in Organisms chapter in Biology, which is helpful for students who are NEET aspirants.
What is Vegetative Propagation?
Vegetative propagation is a type of asexual reproduction in which new plants are produced from vegetative parts of the parent plant, such as roots, stems, and leaves. This process results in genetically identical offspring, which are referred to as clones.
There are several methods of vegetative propagation, including:
Cuttings: A stem or a portion of a stem is cut from the parent plant and planted in soil. The cut stem then develops roots and grows into a new plant that is genetically identical to the parent plant.
Layering: A portion of a stem is bent and buried in soil, leaving the tip exposed. The buried portion of the stem develops roots, and a new plant grows from the buried stem.
Grafting: A stem or a bud from the parent plant is attached to the stem or root of another plant, known as the rootstock. The two plants grow together, with the stem or bud from the parent plant developing into a new plant that is genetically identical to the parent.
Division: The parent plant is divided into smaller sections, each of which has some roots and stems. Each section can then be planted and grown into a new plant that is genetically identical to the parent.
Vegetative propagation is commonly used in horticulture and agriculture to propagate desirable plant varieties. It is also used to propagate plants that are difficult or slow to grow from seeds, such as many fruit trees and ornamental plants. Vegetative propagation can be advantageous as it allows for the production of large numbers of genetically identical plants in a short period of time, but it can also limit genetic diversity, which can be a disadvantage in changing environments where genetic variability is necessary for adaptation.
