Assertion is wrong; Reason is correct.
Explanation:
A runner is the stem portion of the plant that tends to grow horizontally as opposed to upright like the main stem. The end tip of the runner can produce buds that develop into new plants that are clones. Adventitious roots are also produced from the buds found on the runner. Runners are found above the ground, not below. So Assertion is wrong.
Runners bear nodes and internodes, hence Reason is correct.
