Question

disadvantages of vegetative propagation?​

Answer 1

Disadvantages of Vegetative propagation:

• Vegetative propagation includes overcrowding.
• There is no genetic variation and plants are less adaptable to environment.
• The diseases of parent plants are transferred to offsprings.
• No variations.
• plants can be easily decayed.

Answer 2

Answer:

A major disadvantage of vegetative propagation is that it prevents species genetic diversity which can lead to reductions in crop yields. The plants are genetically identical and are all, therefore, susceptible to pathogenic plant viruses, bacteria and fungi that can wipe out entire crops.
