  • Plant reproduction refers to the process of producing new progeny in plants, which can be done sexually or asexually.
  • By fusing gametes during sexual reproduction, kids are produced that are genetically distinct from their parents.
  • Unless mutations occur, asexual reproduction generates new individuals without gamete fusion, clonal plants that are genetically identical to the parent plants and each other.

Plants that reproduce asexually

Asexual reproduction involves the development of identical young plants from a single parent without the need of seeds.

Plants' Sexual Reproduction

Two parents are involved in sexual reproduction, as well as the generation of gametes. Angiosperms are plants that reproduce sexually. Angiosperms are flowering plants that generate seeds as their fruits. Their reproductive organs may be found in the flower.

Reproduction is the ability of living beings to give rise to young ones of their own kind. There are 2 major modes of reproduction in plants. These are :

Asexual Reproduction - uniparental, i.e. only single parent is involved and offsprings are genetically identical to their parents. It is a rapid method of reproduction. Types of asexual reproduction are :

  • Binary fission - parent cell divides to produce 2 equal cells that give rise to 2 new individual
  • Budding - is basically a kind of grafting in which a single bud with a small part of bark and living tissue is grafted on the particular stock
  • Spore formation - different types of motile and non motile spores are produced by algae and fungi
  • Fragmentation - filamentous algae reproduce by fragmentation

Sexual Reproduction - It involves mixing or fusion of genetic material of male & female gametes. The offsprings produced by themselves are not physically identical to parents. They show genetic variation. It is a slow method of multiplication.
