Reproduction (or procreation or breeding) is the biological process by which new individual organisms – “offspring” – are produced from their “parents”. Reproduction is a fundamental feature of all known life; each individual organism exists as the result of reproduction. Reproduction is the sine-qua-non of ‘Continuity of Life’ and without it, all life will cease to exist. This article is based on reproduction in plants.
There are two forms of Reproduction: Asexual and Sexual. In asexual reproduction, an organism can reproduce without the involvement of another organism; while Sexual reproduction typically requires the sexual interaction of two specialized organisms, with typically a male fertilizing a female of the same species to create offspring organisms whose genetic characteristics are derived from those of the two parental organisms.
Reproduction in plants is no different. It takes place via both Sexual and Asexual mechanisms and differs according to the plant species
