Question

Which are the various methods of asexual reproduction in plant​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Asexual reproduction may occur through budding, fragmentation, fission, spore formation and vegetative propagation.

Answer 2

Answer:

Asexual Reproduction occurs mostly among lower organisms. However, it can also occur among higher plants and animals. It can take place in several ways like

1. Binary fission
2. Budding
3. Fragmentation
4. Regeneration
5. Spore formation and
6. Vegetative propagation

Binary fission:

This is the simple division of a unicellular organism into two daughter cells. The genetic material in the parent cell's nucleus Then divides into two, distributing equal amount of genetic material in the daughter nuclei.

Budding:

In this process, a new organism develops from an outgrowth called the bud on the the parent's body. The new organism remains attached to the parent's body as it grows and then separates when it is mature enough to lead its individual life.

Fragmentation:

Fragmentation is the form of asexual reproduction in which new organism are formed from pieces of the parent's body.

Regeneration:

Regeneration is a modified form of fragmentation. These organisms can also give rise to new individuals from their broken body parts.

Spore formation:

Some organisms, like sometimes of fungi, algae, mosses and Ferns reproduce by spore forming sports some bacteria also produce sports that serve as a resting or dormant stage for the bacterial cells to survive unfavourable conditions.

Vegetative propagation :

This process takes place in certain plants, which do not produce seeds or seeds fail to germinate. Such reproduction involves not the seed producing organs of plants, but the vegetative parts that do not take part in sexual reproduction. Hence, it is called vegetative propagation or reproduction.
