Hi,

Vegetative reproduction is any form of asexual reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant or a specialized reproductive structure.

Many plants naturally reproduce this way, but it can also be induced artificially.

I hope it helps you.

Happy learning!!

Hello Aspirant

Vegetative propagation is an asexual method of plant reproduction that occurs in its leaves, roots and stem. This can occur through fragmentation and regeneration of specific vegetative parts of plants.

There are two types of vegetative propagation

  2. Artificial Vegetative Propagation

Hope it helps

Thank you & Good Luck!!!

Greetings aspirant!

This is a kind of asexual reproduction process in plants. Vegetative propagation mean that plants reproduces through steams, leaves and roots. Propagation methods has been in demand nowadays such as grafting and budding. This method is quick and more certain, Produces identical quality as the parent plant, plants that don't have viable seeds can produce through this method, flowers produced with this method are more superior in quality. However through this process no new varieties of plants can be produced,  and it also results in overcrowding.

Hope you find it helpful.
Thankyou!
