the buds present on the roots can grow into leafy shoots example guava explain
Answers
Answer:In vegetative propagation by roots, root (one of the vegetative parts of the plant) of the plant is taken and planted in the soil. It can be done by two methods:
By adventitious buds
Shoots arise from reproductive roots
Roots of some plants develop new plants by producing buds. These buds present on the roots grow as leafy shoots above the ground. These leafy shoots are called as slips. Each slip gives rise to a new plant. These buds detach from the root and develop into new plants.
Adventitious roots (Roots which arise from an organ other than the root) are present at the bases of these adventitious buds. Root tubers develop adventitious buds in sweet potato, dahlia, asparagus, tapioca, etc. The given figure (A) shows adventitious buds growing into new shoots in tuberous roots of sweet potato and (C) shows old root tuber of Dahlia growing into new plant.
Explanation:
Some modified tuberous roots can be propagated vegetatively, when planted in soil. The buds present on the roots grow as leafy shoots called slips above ground and adventitious roots at their bases. Each slip gives rise to a new plant. eg. Sweet potato, Topioca, yam, Dahlia and Tinospora
