Plant propagation learning objectives define sexual and asexual plant propagation Describe various techniques for propagating plants Identify the environmental factors affecting plant propagation. Main types of asexual propagation cuttings grafting micropropagation cuttings cuttings are when a vegetative plant part is removed from one plant (parent plant) in order to create a new plant (daughter plant) They can be taken from the stem (most common), the leaf or the root When cuttings are taken, any flowers or flower buds are removed from the cutting to direct all of the plants energy.
Propagation of stems and leaves learn how to grow new and free plants with propagation Plant propagation is the process of multiplying the numbers of a species, perpetuating a species, or maintaining the youthfulness of a plant There are two types of propagation, sexual and asexual. Asexual propagation is the best way to maintain some species, particularly an individual that best represents that species Clones are groups of plants that are identical to their one parent and that can only be propagated asexually. For now, we’ve made a simple chart to clarify the major differences between sexual and asexual reproduction.
