Question

What are the different ways of vegetative propagation? Discuss a method in brief

Answer 1

The roots of some plants develop adventitious buds on them e.g., Dalbergia sissoo (Shisham), Guava, poplars, Albizzia lebbek, Murraya, etc. Some tuberous adventitious roots besides possessing adventitious buds also contain sufficient quantities of, food, e.g., Dahlia and Sweet potato

These buds sprout under suitable conditions. These sprouts may be separated and planted. In shisham (Tahli), young fast growing, shoots will arise from the roots around the cut stumps of trees.
