ayesha6054: Advantages of vegetative propagation
1.For propagation of plants that produce little or no viable seeds
2.Many fruits are cross pollinated, so to provide consistent quality without variation vegetative propagation is preferred
3.Most often easier, rapid and more economical method
4.Flowering period is short compared to seed propagated plants
ayesha6054: Disadvantages of vegetative propagation
1.Vegetative propagated plants are short lived, small compared to seed propagated plants
2.No new varieties can be produced
3.Skilled persons are required and often expensive compared to seed propagation
4. More susceptible to diseases as the entire plant may get affected as there is no genetic variation
