Vegetative Propagation
Thank you.
Types of Artificial Vegetative Propagation:
Cutting
Cutting:This is simply where a part of the plant is cut from the plant and replanted. Not all plants can reproduce in this manner.Examples include: Pineapple,Plum and Grapes.
Grafting
How Grafting and Cutting can be used.
Grafting: in this process, a part of a plant is attached to the base of another plant. The stock is the plant onto which a new plant will be attached. The new plant to be attached is known as the scion. The most important thing is that the species of the plants involved are extremely similar in the relationship of their species.
Types of Layering

Micropropagation
Layering is the method of inducing certain branches of the parent plant to produce roots by bending and pegging them to the ground around the parent plant leaving the tips exposed. Once the roots develop the branch is then cut off from the parent body.The branch
that produces the root is called the layer. It is done in plants like rasberries, jasminum etc.
Micropropagation
Tissue culture: this is the growth of a new plant in a cultured medium containing all the substances necessary for growth. This is done in a sterile medium and often in a laboratory. A cell, tissue or organ may be used in propagation and is very advantageous in producing healthy clones of plants.
Artificial Vegetative Propagation.
Artificial vegetative propagation as the name suggests does not occur naturally. There are several ways in which man can interfere with plants so as to get a desired offspring. This type of propagation may be carried out in order to get healthier plants, desired traits, more rapid and efficient production rate of offspring or for general experimentation. Methods include:
