Question

Vegetative propagation in potato is performed by roots

Answer 1

Answer: Vegetative reproduction is any form of asexual reproduction occurring in plants in which a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant or a specialized reproductive structure. Many plants naturally reproduce this way, but it can also be induced artificially.     Explanation:  Potatoes are mainly propagated by vegetative methods (cloning). Potato tubers have nodes or eyes from which the new growth begins. The new stems growing from each eye are called sprouts which giver rise to the new plant. Vegetative seed can be either a whole tuber or a cut tuber. In some plants vegetative propagation can take place from roots. For example, in sweet potatoes the roots bear adventitious buds from which new plants can develop when it is buried in the moist soil. Such roots are called reproductive roots. Vegetative propagation can take place from the stem in ginger and potatoes.     HOPE THIS HELPS
