Question

what is vegetative propagation. state two advantages and two disadvantages

Answer 1

Vegetative propagation is a type of asexual reproduction of a plant where only a single plant is involved. Parts (Stems, Roots, Leaves and Bulbs) of plants by the process (Cutting, grafting and layering) can form a new plant which is genetically identical to its parent plant.

Advantage:

Genetically identical offspring’s are produced as a result of which useful traits can be preserved

Special mechanisms such as pollination, and d the agents which helps in pollination are not needed as only one parent is required.

Seedless plants can be produced through vegetative propagation.

Disadvantage:

New characters can neither be introduced nor undesirable characters be eliminated.

The plants cannot withstand unfavorable condition as there is no genetic variation.

The disease of the parent plant gets transferred to the offspring.

Answer 2

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 grows from a specialized reproductive structure.
advantage---the new plants contain the genetic material of only one parent, so they are essentially clones of the parent plant. . This can also help to maintain consistent quality and taste in products made from plants or crops.
disadvantage---no new varieties can be produced.
